Scotland havent deserved it these past 10 minutes.

McTominay is not good enough at passing the ball.

Deserved win for Ukraine.

Scotland just nowhere near good enough, and MCT and Robertson was Scotland's worst players

Was hoping Scotland win as I fancied us beating them over Ukraine.

Sunday’s going to be a very tough game for us.

You islanders really hate each other don't ya :lol:
Don't have a problem with Wales tbh. Just really want to see Ukraine make the World Cup. Would be a nice distraction for their people for a few weeks in what has been a horrible year.

Nice scenes at the end for Ukraine.

Disappointing not to see a Scotland/ Wales finale at the weekend but on that showing the Scots would be a waste of a spot at the World Cup anyway.

Wales v Ukraine it is.

Such a poor game from us. All the energy that got us to the Euros is gone.

I could forgive the players a little as they had to deal with something a little bit psychologically different (not just a WC playoff but against this specific opponent) but this has been a poor showing no matter who you’re playing.
Yeah. Not good enough from a few of the players and the manager. Clarke took far too long to change it when we were clearly struggling. As soon as he did eventually match up the shapes, we were all over them. But already 2-0 down at that point it was simply too late.

That's a given obviously, I hope they make it as well but still amazed how irreverent you lot can be of your fellow countrymen.

It's none of my business anyway, so I just enjoy the heat! :lol:

Wait I thought Scotland were already qualified for the WC? What were those celebrations a few months ago?!

Making the playoffs

Most countries would celebrate that in fairness

I'm using the UK definition , to my knowledge only uk has a seat in the United nations, and I don't think Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland can be quite classified as truly independent nations on their own.

But again as I said, it's really none of my business anyway.

We have 150 years or so of football rivalry with Scotland. It’s the oldest international fixture of the lot. Not that I personally cheer against them but there is no sense of “British” football identity as opposed to England, Scotland and Wales. It felt really weird in the 2012 London Olympics to have a GB team.

This is true.

They are supported by their big brother England.

We allow them to do this and that but ultimately they always come running back for a cuddle when the going gets tough or they need a few quid for the cinema.
