3 h. ago Ché Adams on target as Scotland cruise to victory against Belarus

The stodginess of Scotland’s performance before Ché Adams broke the deadlock ultimately proved irrelevant. In a truncated qualifying campaign the Scottish task was not to make the road to the World Cup an even longer one within one double header. Job done on that front, with four points out of six a wholly acceptable return. The visit of Greece to Hampden Park next month is hugely significant.Belarus lacked the nous and guile to inflict a bloody nose on Scotland. Still, recent struggles against packed defences meant nobody of Scottish persuasion could rest entirely easy until a 65th-minute own goal was added to the earlier Adams effort. Greek success and a comfortable one in Glasgow in March serves as a warning. Still, the Scots would have readily taken this position and opportunity before a Group C ball was kicked. Back-to-back clean sheets to start Scotland’s campaign bodes well. This looks like a robust, well-drilled team once again. Continue reading...
