Cristiano Ronaldo was awarded a penalty just five minutes into Sunday's second leg of Portugal's Nations League quarter-final at home to Denmark.

The 40-year-old former Manchester United and Real Madrid forward stepped up to take the spot-kick after being dragged down in the box.

It was the perfect chance for Ronaldo to produce his famous "siu" celebration, just three days on from Denmark striker Rasmus Hojlund copying it after scoring the winner in the first leg.

However, Celtic goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel was completely unfazed by Ronaldo's stuttering run-up, diving low to his left to keep out his tame effort.

The 32nd penalty miss of a glittering career. He's scored a few too, mind you (172).

Away from Hampden, it was a busy Sunday night on the international scene, with some real drama in the Nations League quarter-finals:

• Ronaldo's penalty woe as Portugal overcome Denmark
• Kimmich 'does a Trent' for Germany while Italy suffer from penalty/no penalty decision

• Olise stunner kickstarts France fightback before penalty chaos against Croatia

• Netherlands take Spain to penalties in thrilling 3-3 draw

We have spent the early part of the morning assessing the fall-out from Sunday's Nations League games.

Get up to speed with this round-up of the results.

So far, we have looked at Scotland's defeat to Greece, which saw Steve Clarke's side relegated to the second tier of the competition.

Here's the morning headlines:

• 'Scotland were crying out for the magic of the Lawman'
• 'I'll go away and look at myself to see what I could have done better'
• An embarrassing night for us - McGinn
• Who is Konstantinos Karetsas?
• What next for Scotland?

We've got limited resources - that's absolutely been the case for a long time.

What we have got a lack of is anyone who can go beyond and Ben Doak made such a difference on the right-hand-side.

The game he played against the Croatians and he gave Josko Gvardiol such a tough time in that game.

We were very, very limited on the day, but we look forward to getting Doak back.

Every team loses players at some point in time. You need to cope with it and up until recently we coped with it quite well.

We're at Hampden, we're at home, we go a goal down, look, what have we got to lose? We're going out anyway, let's go open it up and go for it.

But that absolutely didn't work because Greece are a decent team.

They pick you off in the break. They've got a lot of good players, they've got huge amounts of pace, technically they're really proficient.

Former Scotland players Steven Naismith and James McFadden were equally impressed by the performance of Greece teenager Konstantinos Karetsas:

"For 17 and what he's doing, the goal tells you… He isn't rushing it and blasting it. He's got the composure," said Naismith.

"As a coach, these are the types of players who are really hard to find, willing to be aggressive and go forward. His first thought is to play forward and beat his man rather than be safe."

"He's been class, picking up really good positions, comfortable in possession, and made great decisions as well," added McFadden.

"It was an incredible finish - we're going to be seeing a lot of this kid going forward."

Greece manager Ivan Jovanovic has unearthed a gem in Konstantinos Karetsas, who may not be at Genk for long.

He made things look easy, though Scotland didn't put much in his way.

The way the attacking midfielder linked with his team-mates, you would think he had played with them for years, not just one week.

Much has already been made of the "pretty special" starlet.

If Scotland have any great hopes of revenge when they face the Greeks later in the year in World Cup qualifying, a keener eye will need to be kept on Karetsas.

While Scotland's dismal display made the headlines in the UK, across Europe the buzz was about the performance of Greece teenager Konstantinos Karetsas.

The 17-year-old Genk midfielder scored a superb second goal for Greece in his first start for Ivan Jovanovic's side, having come off the bench to ignite their second-half pressure in the first leg.

Karetsas had already announced himself as a Greek treasure after switching allegiances from Belgium.

After being born in Belgium to Greek parents, he had initially turned out as a Belgian youth international.

Former Scotland defender Willie Miller on Sportsound:

"Greece were just a better side, we had no answer for them.

"We had no creativity and no threat, we didn't make it difficult at all for Greece. It's League A we wanted to be in and we failed tonight."

Aston Villa midfielder John McGinn on Scotland's defeat to Greece:

"We started pretty well, had a couple of chances, we just let ourselves down with the first goal we conceded.

"We've got to reflect now before two friendlies in the summer.

"It's an embarrassing night for us, everyone is flat in the stadium, we let ourselves down."

We felt really positive going into the game last night, but sadly things unfolded like a bit of a Greek tragedy.

Is this just a symptom of the fact that expectation had been raised by Steve Clarke and his team now?

I don't know what his [Clarke's] plans are after last night. I think there was a lot of players out of position last night.

I think there'll be a lot of self-reflection both from the players and Steve Clarke today.

So what did you make of Scotland's defeat?

Where does that leave Steve Clarke and his side?

How optimistic are you for their chances in World Cup qualifying - considering they are in a group with Greece, Denmark and Belarus?

As Steve Clarke mentioned, defeat to Greece means that they have been relegated down to Group B of the next Nations League tournament, which will be played in the 2026-27 season.

Their immediate future includes two friendlies - at home to Iceland on 6 June and away to Liechtenstein three days later.

The Scots will then kick off their World Cup qualifying campaign with back-to-back away games in the autumn - in Denmark on 5 September and Belarus on 8 September.

Scotland's first home game of World Cup qualifying is against Nations League conquerors Greece on 9 October.

Scotland manager Steve Clarke on his side's 3-1 aggregate defeat to Greece in their Nations League play-off, which followed a damaging 3-0 home loss after 1-0 victory in Greece in the opening leg:

"I talked about setting down a marker before the game, Greece have done that tonight.

"Greece were the better team on the night. We started okay, had one or two half chances.

"They score with their first attack. We didn't get back behind the ball quick enough and we didn't create enough - that adds up to a disappointing night.

"I'll go away and look at myself to see what I could have done better. Maybe I didn't make enough rotations. Maybe I could have made more to freshen the team up.

"We have to analyse it, park this tournament because we go down to League B, and try to do better."

Scotland had paid tribute to one of their favourite sons, Denis Law, pre-match.

On an evening the man they called 'King' was commemorated by all including his old pal Sir Alex Ferguson, Scotland were crying out for the magic of the Lawman.

Giannis Konstantelias' opener punctured the place and from then on, Scotland never looked like replicating the storm the Greeks brought on Thursday.

Clarke's side were terrorised down the left, while Ryan Christie – the only change from the first leg – looked lost out wide, having excelled more centrally for Bournemouth this season.

But in truth, even Scotland's tried and trusted in their safe space appeared disorientated.

It was a far cry from the all-round performance on Thursday that garnered much praise and instead one which regurgitates questions about this team that surfaced last year at Euro 2024.

The Scots showed their fight and mettle to force this play-off, but choked at crunch time.

If you can bear to watch, here are the highlights from Scotland's Nations League defeat to Greece at Hampden.

Steve Clarke's side had sealed an impressive 1-0 win in Thursday's opening leg in Piraeus

But Giannis Konstantelias had the freedom of the national stadium on 20 minutes to strike Greece level on aggregate

And 17-year-old Konstantinos Karetsas' curled in a cracker minutes before half-time to give the visitors a deserved lead

Christos Tzolis then smashed the Greeks' third past Craig Gordon just 13 seconds into the second half

Unable to respond, Scotland head back down to Nations League Group B, while Greece take their place in Group A.

Right, in a moment we will look at those dramatic scenes in the Nations League, which included two penalty shootouts, famous comebacks from Kylian Mbappe's France and Cristiano Ronaldo's Portugal, plus a right old scare for Germany and Spain.

But let's kick this morning off with news from Hampden, where Scotland were relegated from Group A of the Nations League top tier with a chastening defeat at home to Greece.
