Deserved goal but Marshall made a bit of an erse of the attempted save.
Should have saved that, best team winnin...
Well that’s been coming. Giving them so much time and space.
No idea what the plan is but it looks like it is watch them until they score. Lifeless peeformance
Marshall should’ve saved that.
Left the player with the option to try his luck with a shot from distance.
Goalkeeper has to be saving that
Shocker from the keeper. Should have saved that.
That goal has been coming.Scotland have been poor.
Give if far too much space, time and respect to Israel. They are dictating the game, we are passive.
The goal must give us a kick up the arse in the second half.

...... and there we are. Scotland so poor.
Scotland need to win this if they want to progress, completely lifeless performance at the moment
That’s the problem with 1 up top. Too easy for the whole team to move up to half way and dictate. We have to press the game higher up the park.
3-1 Austria.
I'll stick my neck on the line and say that if the scores stay as they are right now, Scotland will be out of the qualifying already.
Time for a Nisbet extravaganza
Yeah. Could understand a game plan of sitting in and hit on the break.Quote:

Really really poor from Scotland, flat performance and being over run. A few really haven't shown up yet at all. Mcginn, mctominay and MacGregor being dominated
Keeper should maybe have saved it but non existent midfield not closing down quick enough is the real problem.
Our big players haven't turned up - McGinn and McTominay have been passengers. And central defence again looking dodgy. Like the look of Adams though.
Between Israel and Scotland for 3rd imo. Apparently 3rd gets nothing though. Losing that last game against Israel a few months ago has cost Scotland a play off place.Quote:

Marshall has to save that. Scotland standing off, McTom, SJM anonymous.
The more I watch Scotland the less I rate Steve Clarke tbh...got very lucky with the 2 pen shootout wins...he made a mess of it in Serbia with his subs when we were 1 0 up and weve been really poor in most games ever since Serbia...dreadful 1st half tonight
Has John Mcginn actually touched the ball ?
Steve Clark is a ******g clueless IMO. He sets his teams up so negative no spark no drive. Of course I stand to be corrected :grr:
The Israel formation is causing Scotland problems. We need 2 up top.
Scotland were having a better spell just before the goal but couldn’t get the ball for large parts of 1st half.
Israel better team and deserve to be ahead.
Keeper possibly could have tried to save shot with right hand reaching across body and tipping it round post / over bar - not sure he moved his feet quick enough.
Anyway like Austria game need to show more 2nd half as 1st half isn’t going to get you qualifying for tournaments.
Flat as ****. SJM not been in it, Hendry not got it at this level, Robertson usual Scotland performance, Marshall has to save the goal, Adams ok, Tierney is very good. How McGregor has got 50+ caps is one of life's mysteries. Allowed them to come all the way to half way before any attempted challenge, just so flat and uninspiring.
