    Ukraine get a second. Don’t see Scotland getting back into this now. Ukraine have looked much the better team throughout.

    Yarmolenko looking like peak Messi. Adams looking like a very average striker.

    Ukrainians getting tired, understandably.

    Adams and Stuey have imported the Saints way of playing to Scotland it seems, unless something drastic happens.

    Ukraine or Wales it is. Scotland were poor for most of that, including Che unfortunately.

    Great stuff for Ukraine, delighted for them.

    My god, Che was dreadful though. Mind you, the much vaunted Robertson wasn’t much better. Stu was horrid when he came on too.

    Steve Clarke despite doing very well for Scotland overall totally choked that with a dire choice of set up, then totally failed to correct it.

    I don’t think Wales will make the same mistake, imagine that will be a much closer contest.

    Meh, we didn`t want to go to Qatar anyway! Fair play to Ukraine, the better team won.

    Yeah fair play to Ukraine. Incredible feat considering.

    Just glad it wasn't England playing Ukraine instead of you guys. The world hates us enough without giving them another reason!

    To be honest I’d rather play them than have a derby against Scotland or Wales. I would expect us to beat Ukraine, but probably only grind out a boring 0-0 against Wales/Scots.

    Anyway, here’s just hoping the war is over by then and Ukraine is celebrating victory over Putin.

    Reasonable chance of them getting the Triple Crown!

    I think Wales will give them a much harder game in all reality, Ukraine played very well and were motivated as you can imagine but Scotland just didn’t turn up despite having all sorts of advantage.

    Scotland were in a no win situation there but Che brought his Saints form with him and Stuey was only marginally better.

    At least they get a nice mid-season break in Nov/Dec.
