Thanks for your company. It wasn't as bad a game as some made out, but the worrying thing for Scotland ahead of the game in Dublin is that they made a poor team look okay.

Join us next week to find out if Gordon Strachan's side can up their game against the Republic of Ireland.

Barry Johnstone; "@BBCSportScot Qatar looks the better team at points."

Ken on Facebook: "One word - terrible"

Steven Naismith conducted that interview with a couple of nasty cuts on his chest following that clash with the Qatar goalkeeper. However, the striker says he will be fine to face the Republic of Ireland.

"It probably was a penalty. We didn't get it, but overall it wasn't the greatest result but one we needed after having a wee break.

"The boys who had a break got a good bit of game time and we can focus on next week's game and stands us in good stead.

"We are on the up and there's competition for places."

Injured Scotland midfielder Robert Snodgrass thinks Alan Hutton, Russell Martin, Steven Fletcher, James Morrison and possibly Andy Robertson are likely to come into the starting line-up against the Republic of Ireland.

"It was another good performance by the lads.

"From start to finish, we worked hard and did what the gaffer asked of us.

"Everybody says it should be 4-0 or 5-0, but it is never as easy as that.

"It has been good results so far and we need to keep that going.

"Ireland's a great team and they made it hard for us at Celtic Park.

"But we got the win and hopefully we can do that again in Dublin."

Scotland captain Scott Brown has just told BBC Radio Scotland that he might be some time before his interview as there are four stunning air hostesses presenting the trophy.

For what it was worth, just a reminder that Matt Ritchie's goal has secured for Scotland the Qatar Airways Cup.

"I found some of that game almost unwatchable. It was just meandering throughout the second half. Players were going through the motions and it was a very tame affair. Qatar showed some nice touches - more than I expected - but Scotland weren't very good and had to defend smartly. This was more of a commercial exercise than a football event."

Scotland secure a third straight victory to end Qatar's three-match unbeaten run.

Leigh Griffiths tests the goalkeeper with a low drive from 18 yards, but Qatar goalkeeper Amine Lecomte Addani does well to turn the ball wide for a corner.

"It hasn't really been a test for Scotland. It is poor quality opposition that haven't shown much going forward. Scotland have had a few chances and should have scored one or two more."

Scotland have the ball in the net for a second time, but Leigh Griffiths is clearly offside as he side-foots home from two yards after a fine run and pass from Charlie Adam.

A good run by Scotland striker Leigh Griffiths and his low cross is turned wide of the far post by Johnny Russell.

Johnny Russell isn't heeding Gordon Strachan's advice about not making strong challenges as the striker takes out two Qataris in one foul swoop.

Qatar have probably been the more dangerous side in the final quarter of the game at Easter Road, but the 14,270 crowd - a bit more than we estimated - are doing their best to inspire the Scots.

Substitute Johnny Russell is denied by a good, point-blank save from goalkeeper Amine Lecomte Addani after an instinctive flick from the striker.

TheStellarossa: "It's battle of the pub teams."

Graeme: "Celtic fans tell me James Forrest is great. I have not seen one bit of evidence in a Scotland shirt to prove this to me."

Atheist Agenda: "It's like watching two Third Division teams."

Abdelkarim Hassan shows great skill to weave his way from the halfway line and into the Scotland penalty box only to be thwarted by a Gordon Greer challenge.

Hassan Al Haidos nips inside his marker and unleashes a powerful drive from the edge of the penalty box that Scotland goalkeeper Craig Gordon does well to turn round the post. Danger for Scotland.
