CLOSE!published at 41 mins
Albania Women 0-1 Scotland Women
Oh, what a massive, massive chance for Scotland!
Erin Cuthbert races in behind the defence up the right flank, brilliantly jinks past the covering defender, but from point-blank range, flicks the ball straight at goalkeeper Rexhepi.
That really should have been a goal.

Albania Women 0-1 Scotland Women
Albania embark on a rare foray downfield, but good defending from Sophie Howard ensures the move ends in a goal kick.
The Scots have just eased off in the last few minutes, but they haven't really been troubled.

We're being a bit complacent in possession and when we're getting into good wide areas, the ball is a bit aimless.
We might be lucky and get the break of the ball but we need to pick someone out. Maybe a cut-back or looking to change their runs up a bit, because it's not working at the moment.

That's good defending. That ball causes defence and goalkeeper problems in the "corridor of uncertainty", as they call it.

Albania Women 0-1 Scotland Women
Scotland have a free-kick wide on the left and Caroline Weir curls in a wicked delivery along the six-yard line.
It bounces right in front of goal and it's acrobatically diverted behind by Arbiona Barjraktari.

Erin is a really difficult player to play against and I think fouling her is the only way Albania can stop her.
Her physical attitude comes from her background. She played in a boys' league for a long time as a youngster. She was a tiny player and had to introduce that physical side to her game.

It's all getting a bit frenetic in Albania, as play rages from one end to the other and both sides struggle to keep possession.
There are some tasty challenges flying in too - Erin Cuthbert gets cynically felled once...no free-kick. Moments later, the Scotland striker gets chopped down, and does win her team a foul.

Is it full-time yet?
Remember, if Scotland better Switzerland's result in Poland, they reach the World Cup finals...

Collision between Sophie Howard and Megi Doci leaves both players down receiving treatment. Fortunately they're both OK and play continues.

Arnot back in the groovepublished at 23 mins
Albania Women 0-1 Scotland Women
Lizzie Arnot is making her first Scotland start since rupturing her ACL, and she's been involved in pretty much all of the visitors' attacking play.
Arnot is giving her marker a torrid time down the right flank, and provided Kim Little with a sumptuous assist for the Scots' goal.

Scotland are well on top, bullying Albania. We're looking very comfortable, it's just that word complacency for me - I'd like another goal.

There's only 19 minutes gone, I wouldn't be too concerned that we're not scoring more goals because I'm pretty confident Albania are not going to cause us any problems at the back.
Lizzie Arnot is getting an awful lot of joy down the right.

As things stand (early days I know...), Scotland will top Group 2 with Switzerland currently being held in Poland.
What could possibly go wrong...

Another big, big chance for Scotland.
Erin Cuthbert finds more space in the Albanian box, but lashes her right-foot shot high over the crossbar.

Great turn from Cuthbert and Ross was just unlucky at the end. But we need to capitalise on this pressure. We need to get a goal.
GREAT SAVE!published at 16 mins
Albania Women 0-1 Scotland Women
So close to a second for Scotland - and a stunning double-save from Viona Rexhepi.
Erin Cuthbert breaks through, one-on-one with the goalkeeper, but fires straight against the onrushing stopper.
Rexhepi is back on her feet brilliantly to tip away Jane Ross' effort on the rebound.Scotland need to make their pressure conut.
