Erithacus Posted March 21, 2019 Share Posted March 21, 2019 I understand the starting XI for Scotland have relatively few caps between them - essentially a rookie team - so perhaps it's not such a shock. Still pretty grim for the Jocks, though, as witnessed by the torrents on social media. I heard on the radio that some fans were planning to go to France to watch the Women's World Cup, rather than the men. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

North London Red Posted March 23, 2019 Share Posted March 23, 2019 As Scotland are already guaranteed a play off place (having won their Nations League group), if they lose against Belgium and Russia they could quite quickly end up in a position where it’s extremely unlikely they’ll finish in the top two, and therefore the remainder of their Euro qualifier group games could effectively become dead rubbers, as whoever finishes third in their group will have no bearing on who makes the play offs. That said, they still have time to recover from the loss against Kazakhstan, and I wouldn’t put it past them to run Russia close for second place (and whilst it’s tempting to sneer, they did come within a few seconds of beating England at Hampden in 2017).
