Episode notes
Scotland's Qualification Is Fragile
- Scotland secured a playoff spot despite an uninspiring, nervy win over Belarus.
- The team shows offensive improvement but lacks cohesion and intensity without the ball.
Good On Ball, Weak Without It
- Steve Clarke's side looked better on the ball with players like Gilmore and Gallon Doak providing forward momentum.
- However, their passive defending and lack of pressing let Belarus play through them and gain confidence.
Faroe Islands' Fairy-Tale Run
- The Faroe Islands stunned the Czech Republic and have unexpectedly remained alive in qualification.
- Their shock results still likely fall short because they face Croatia while Czechia play Gibraltar next.
