Scotland vs Armenia

Joaquin Caparros' men stunned Ireland at the weekend with a 1-0 win in Yerevan and arrive in Glasgow as group leaders. That offers Steve Clarke an opportunity ...

"We know all the Scotland players because we have watched a lot of matches. I don’t think he will change it in defence. Last week didn’t go well against Ukraine, but there's the chance to make up for that - at least a bit - against Armenia at Hampden tonight. The heartbreaking end to the Qatar journey coupled with a lacklustre display against Ukraine has made it a massive night for the players and boss at Hampden. A swift change of seat in the press box required at Hampden after the rain started coming through the roof and directly on to the laptop. There was a lot of headscratching when the Nations League was first launched but as the picture became clearer it was obvious it was a huge opportunity for Scotland - and one they took as Steve Clarke's men booked a place at Euro 2020 after those nerve-shredding shoot-out wins over Israel and Serbia. A bright start from the Scots though who have enjoyed most of the possession and are looking to out Armenia under pressure at every opprtunity. Seems like a matter of when and not if Scotland make the breakthrough after a really strong start. But he's been heavilty invovled so far and it looks like Scotland are in the mood, but need to get that first goal. What a moment for the right back and that should allow Steve Calrke to breathe a little easier, jst as Armenia were starting to frustrate. There's the breakthrough for Scotland and it's a debut goal for Anthony Ralston! The full-back drifts into the back post to meet Armstroing's excellent delivery, and plants a clever header back across Yurchenko and ito the far corner.
