Todays Games

[Stroller]

Zinchenko, who seems very ordinary in a City shirt, looks different class to any Scottish player.

 

[Goldhawk-Road]

Couple of big names missing, Tierney the most notable. Don't know how much difference he would've made tonight though, Scotland look like they've bottled it

Plenty of heart but woeful finishing

 

[jeffranger]

This game should be well over, do many chances missed by Ukraine, Scot’s piss poor & oh that miss, my nine year old grandson would’ve put that in

 

[Steelmonkey]

That makes the next ten minutes interesting.....Scotland with one back

I'd forgotten him.
He'd get in the squad....maybe.
Scotland score.
Game on.

Always looked a good player imo.
Superb tonight.

 

[Trammers]

1 back....... grandstand finish.....

 

[rangercol]

Byeeee Scotland.
They can go back to laughing at England when we lose major semi finals and finals.

Totally outclassed for most of the game.

 

[Trammers]

And now it's all over.......1-3

 

[Steelmonkey]

Very poor from Scotland...biggest game for years, and they just didn't turn up.

Well done Ukraine, hope they beat the Welsh on Sunday and make it to the finals.

Superb tonight.

He's a top player in an ordinary side, but an ordinary player in a top side.

Excellent tonight and ran the show, but will never be a major force at City.

Tonnes of interest in the England game then?

Tonnes of interest in the England game then?

Just had to text my Leicester mate to find out who James Justin is. Injured for half the season apparently, but the Foxes rate him.

Can’t help thinking that some of these players could do with a rest.

Very surprised so many first choice players are starting.
Especially Trent, who must be desperately knackered.
England started brightly, but very scrappy now.
Hungary look quite good on the ball and dangerous on the break.
Trent's corners have been awful, considering how good he is with dead ball deliveries.
Bellingham giving the ball away in poor positions a lot.

 

[rangercol]

Very hot there too, which won't help.

I've no idea what a full strength side for England is these days, but if this side is full of first choice players, they're hardly setting the world on fire.

 

[rangercol]

All Hungary now.
England players look knackered.

Didn't say full of first choice players.
They look ****ed.
The ridiculous awarding of the WC to Quatar means there's little room for friendlies before it starts, resulting in these Nations League games being played just after the season has finished.

That's what happens when you don't take your opponent seriously - Hungary 1 up after a slightly dubious penalty decision

Not sure what else Southgate could have done.
Like I said, I was surprised the team wasn't all 2nd string.
It's a shame the 21 unbeaten run (excluding penalties) has come to an end, but these games are at the end of a gruelling season and our players should all be resting.
Germany on Tuesday, so the games just keep on coming.
