8 h. ago Merino double sparks Spain’s run of goals in domination of Bulgaria

It started in Scotland and it still has not finished yet. That night at Hampden was only Luis de le Fuente’s second as Spain coach; it also felt like it might be his last. Two Scott McTominay goals defeated the Seleccion but while just about everyone else thought his spell would be brief, he was talking about a pathway opening and here’s the thing: the man accused of living in Disneyland back then was right. Three years and four days later, Spain moved to within touching distance of the World Cup by racking up their 29th consecutive competitive game unbeaten*, equalling their record.On a night when Pedri played and Mikel Merino made the difference, Spain beat Bulgaria 4-0 to take them to 12 points from 12 in qualifying, close now.

57 h. ago McTominay and Adams strike as dismal Scotland edge out Belarus and seal playoff slot

Someone within Hampden Park had the temerity to blast Freed From Desire over the public address system at full time. A song normally reserved for euphoric moments only just drowned out the jeers that met a Scotland victory. People just want more and more? Too right they do.Steve Clarke and his players edged closer to the World Cup with this win. It was just that a return to that scene for the first time since 1998 felt a million miles away as the Scots limped and laboured past Belarus. “We know we have got to be better, man,” admitted Scott McTominay. The Napoli midfielder was even more profound as he scored Scotland’s second; latter word “me” and the first a rhyme with “duck.” McTominay’s lack of celebrations perfectly depicted Scotland’s messy night.

60 h. ago Scott McTominay and Ché Adams on target as nervy Scotland edge out Belarus

Scotland edged closer to the World Cup with this result. It is just that next summer’s festival of football felt so far away as the Scots limped and laboured to victory over Belarus.A dismal showing has left Steve Clarke with far more questions than answers beforethe two closing fixtures that will determine Scotland’s Group C fate. More of this will not do; as the Hampden Park crowd pointed out with increasing ferocity during the second half. Scott McTominay eased nerves with a late goal; the Napoli man’s lack of celebration said it all. Continue reading...
