    BBC Sport Scotland

    "The second half takes on a completely different look after that stunning Matt Ritchie strike. Poland had been in complete control with the home side creating very little. The question is, will the Scotland goal do to Poland what the visitors goal did for Scotland? Gordon Strachan sticks plan B back in the drawer and now looks ahead to the second half."

    BBC Radio 5 live sports extra at Hampden Park

    "For the first 25 minutes I thought Scotland were basically out. They couldn't even get near Poland, they looked second best in every position but slowly and surely they've come into the match again and got better and better without ever really taking control. 

    "And the one opportunity they have had, it wasn't even a half chance. Matt Ritchie was 25 yards out and facing the wrong way but he absolutely leathered it home."

  10. HITS THE WOODWORKpublished at 20:30

    Northern Ireland 1-0 Greece

    What an escape! Greece have one shot blocked in the goalmouth and then seconds later Kostas Mitroglou rattles a shot against the inside of the post.

    As the woodwork reverberates, referee Bas Nijhuis blows for half-time...

  11. CLOSE!published at 20:29

    Republic of Ireland 0-0 Germany

    Germany piece together a neat, flowing move down the right but when it is cut back to Mesut Ozil on the edge of the area he can only shoot into the side-netting. Shay Given is struggling now though.

    "We're now in the last few minutes of the half and Northern Ireland just need to take the sting out of the game. Run the clock down. 

    "Greece have been knocking the ball around well and I'd like to see the home side get their passing game back going again."

    It's not going to be all plain sailing for the hosts as Kostas Mitroglou threatens to convert a fine cross at the far post but that man Steven Davis is back in his own box this time to hook it out.

    Republic of Ireland 0-0 Germany

    Germany make an early change as Bayern Munich forward Mario Gotze limps off to be replaced by Wolfsburg's former Chelsea man Andre Schurrle. Guile replaced by pace. 

    For all of Germany's play, they have yet to have a shot on target.

    Northern Ireland 1-0 Greece

    Prior to this week, Northern Ireland goalscorer Steven Davis last found the net in February 2014, for Southampton in a 2-2 draw with Stoke.

    He now has two in a week after notching in Saints' 3-1 win at Chelsea on Saturday.

    Northern Ireland potentially just 50 minutes of playing time away from a place in the Euro 2016 finals. What a night.

    Windsor Park genuinely bouncing now. Great atmosphere.

    "Stuart Dallas made sure he got the ball in the six-yard box and who was there for Northern Ireland? Captain Fantastic, Steven Davis. And what a ball from Corry Evans, too.

    "Northern Ireland just need to keep the momentum now."

    That is a bit of quality! Lovely move from Northern Ireland as Corry Evans slips a pass inside the full-back, Stuart Dallas takes one touch and then slots a cross across the face of goal and there is captain Steven Davis, sliding to convert from close range! Windsor Park erupts - set sights for France 2016...

    Michael McGovern in the Northern Ireland goal does really well to come off his line and punch a dangerous cross away. Greece threatening.
