Belarus 0-2 Scotland

Scotland did not miss the Tartan army too much.

Fans who traveled to Hungary were trapped in the ZTE Arena, and the organizers ordered the game behind the closed door in a neutral place due to the support of the state of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.

It was quiet, but the side of Steve Clarke felt their presence as Scott McTominay was widely fired before Billy Gilmour’s efforts turned into a post.

Che Adams nodded GilMour’s ball in the second half and stabbed home from McTominay’s header just before half an hour to secure victory in the second half.

Scotland enters the home double header with Greece and Belarus in Hampden Park next month. The opportunity to get 6 to 4 points on the road, two clean seats and a powerful start of a strong start is to win 4 points if you win 3-0 in Greece, but it gets a bit better.

Scotland was on track in SOLID START.

After the tricky evening in Copenhagen, Clarke rebuilt his sides as the winger Ben Gannon Doak began with Max Johnston, Scott McKena and Billy Gilmour.

In the 15th minute of the game that returned to Covid Times, Gilmour entered the Belarus Box under the challenge of Kiryl Pechenin, but Nikola Dabanovic was not interested.

On the other hand, Pechenin’s header needed savings from Scotland goalkeeper Angus Gunn.

The game was warmer and Gilmour, defender John Souttar and midfielder Scott McTominay all made various efforts on Belorusia’s goals, and Napoli Midfielders illegally insisted on penalty when they collided with Pahemenko in the Belarus Box.

As the half -time approached, Gannon Doak founded Gilmour and his powerful driving in 20 yards was far from the post by Fyodor LapoukHov.

Diabelorusi’s goalkeeper, where John McGinn searches for delivery to the back post, eventually recorded a hat -trick with Liechtenstein, a friendly Liechtenstein in June when McTomina, where Adams tied the ball from the yard out, turned back. Afterwards, he scored his first goal.

A second goal was needed to alleviate the rising nerves with sporadic Belorusi attacks, and lucky Volkov came when he lowered the header as his net at Gilmour ‘S Cross.

Belarusi did not suggest that McGin and Adams would return to the defense and goalkeepers late if they did not resign in defeat.

It will be a harder test before Scotland can book his place in the World Cup final for the first time in 27 years.

‘Nice to meet you with a smile on your face’

The Granite City Chief coach Steve Clark Sayed BBC Scotland:

“It was a hard night. I expected Belarusi’s reaction. They started big people and filled the middle of the park.

“We kept stimulating what we wanted to do. The message was to maintain patience and could do it.

“It’s a good start, a solid start. 4 points will not be qualified for you. It’s a good idea to go home with a smile on your face, but I’m already thinking about the next month.

“Billy (Gilmour) and Ben (Gannon-DOAK) are two players who stimulate the public. My task is to choose a team to win the game.

“Clean seats are to build a campaign.”

Robertson: Patience

The Granite City captain Andy Robertson Sayed BBC Scotland:

“Work is over. That’s the best way to explain it.

“We knew they would be more safer and more defensive, and we had to be patient and our goal was just half an hour.

“We were able to do more, but I was able to do well.

“It takes a while to find out what’s going to happen if they change their own shape, and after we achieved a big goal, I wanted to maintain a professional and achieve the second goal.

“Gafffer is left on the left (Ben Gannon-Doak) on the left, so it is not necessary to take care of him, but he wants to take people and his decision was good.

“We wore some shifts on Friday and had to make it fresh. Four people came in. We needed a full squad to qualify.”
