    Northern Ireland hero Kyle Lafferty is indeed down and receiving treatment, looks like a textbook case of cramp. He'll run it off.

    Former Northern Ireland midfielder Danny Wilson at Windsor Park: "Kyle Lafferty's doing a lot of work for Northern Ireland and getting into good positions, and the ball's not coming. He'll keep working, but they've got to give him a little bit of sugar sometimes. He's just gone down now, and I'm hoping it's only a little bit of cramp."

    Finland have 18 minutes to save this one. Joel Pohjanpalo makes a nuisance of himself but Gareth McAuley cuts him off and hammers the ball clear into the building site.

    BBC Sport's Alasdair Lamont at Hampden

    "This is more like a friendly now, with the result not in question and Gibraltar determined not to cave in completely. Scotland are entirely dominant but are far from clinical enough and, as such, the game is a bit of a non-event."

    BBC Radio 5 live's Roddy Forsyth at Hampden Park: "Somebody's posted on the BBC Scotland website: 'How embarrassed Gibraltar must be that Steven Fletcher's scored against them.' That's a bit harsh."

    It's been pointed out to me that goal difference will actually have no impact on the group, so Scotland have every right to sit back on this one. As you were Scotland.

    Last 20 minutes.

    Scotland and Hull winger Robert Snodgrass on BBC Radio Scotland: "It's a matter of time before we get another goal and the man to do that is on the pitch now - Jordan Rhodes. He's the natural finisher in the squad. If we get the ball in and around the six-yard box, he'll be there."

    Jonny Evans and Corry Evans getting the 'Yaya/Kolo Toure' chant at Windsor Park. I'll leave it to you to decide who is the better set of brothers...

    Former Northern Ireland midfielder Danny Wilson at Windsor Park: "Stuart Dallas, who has just come on, can eat up the ground very quickly. And with Northern Ireland playing on the counter-attack, it's vital he can do that.

    "Northern Ireland's performance is just getting a bit scrappy. Let's calm down, get our composure, string a few passes together and get our confidence back."

    A game tailor made for Jordan Rhodes, surely? The Blackburn man is on for Steven Naismith.

    Midway through the second half and it's as you were. Germany still lead Georgia 2-0 in Scotland's group, while Romania are 1-0 up against Faroe Islands in Northern Ireland's group.

    Twenty-five minutes left in our 17:00 BST games. No sign of any darkness yet, but not much sign of action in the second half, either.

    Stephen in Portrush: How has Michael O'Neill succeeded where so many managers have failed? Northern Ireland are playing like a team and punching above their weight! To be fair, Lawrie Sanchez did it as well.

    Former Scotland international Billy Dodds on BBC Radio Scotland: "Steven Fletcher's got to finish that. It's a great ball in from Hutton, who was rampaging down the right. Maybe was trying to put too little contact on it."

  16. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 18:21 British Summer Time 29 March 2015

    Northern Ireland make a change as Stuart Dallas replaces Niall McGinn. It's only a year since I saw Dallas clogging around in a League Two relegation dogfight for Northampton. He's had an excellent 12 months.

    BBC Radio 5 live's Roddy Forsyth at Hampden Park: "The crowd are getting a bit impatient now. Scotland are just sitting on their lead and playing the ball around.

    "Quite a good number of Gibraltar fans have made the trip, and they've been by far the noisier. They've aimed a good few barbs at the Tartan Army as well. There are taunts of '4-1 and you think you're good'."

    Should be five really, Steven Fletcher getting his angles all wrong and slicing one wide from bang in front of goal.

    Germany 'only' put four past Gibraltar but goal difference could prove crucial in Group D.

    Former Scotland international Willie Miller on BBC Radio Scotland: "Gibraltar have seen more of the ball in the second half but I think that might have been expected. The job is done now for Scotland and anything more than four goals will be a bonus."
