No mention of the mighty Scots yet?
Scotland battled to a well deserved 1-1 draw with England crushers Croatia in an entertaining match at Hampden Park.
Not the friendliest of friendlies as the two proud nations fought for every ball resulting in maybe 6 or 7 yellow cards. Croatia showed class and composure in possession with Luka Modric the stand out in the croatian side, the guy oozes class.
On the scots side Manchester United midfielder Darren Fletcher was hot and cold, showed his ability but also showed his tendency to give away possession cheaply. Limped off after skinning his man and taking a real clattering towards the end of the match.
Also young Steven Fletcher made his Scotland debut and the highly rated youngester assisted the scots goal with a fine ball (lucky) for Miller.
Other noticable mentions go to Allan Hutton, firmly established as the best brittish right back as he was outstanding for the scots. Two mazy runs from right back left half the Croatian team for dead and almost won the scots the game. Why United didn't get this guy when they had the chance i'll never know.
