Scotland's first Nations League fixture
Albania lead League C Group 1 after beating Israel
McGregor, O'Donnell, Naismith & Russell start for Scotland
Scotland 1-0 Albania
So close to Scotland handing Albania the equaliser.
John Souttar is short with a back-pass and Bekim Balaj beats the outrushing Allan McGregor and, although he prods it past the goalkeeper, it slips wide of the post.
Scotland 1-0 Albania

Steven Naismith made the early movement - maybe a little too early - but his performance has deserved that goal.
Steven Naismith
Stuart Armstrong is immediately involved as Scotland make a swift breakthrough.
He plays the ball back into the path of Andy Robertson, whose high curling cross finds Steven Naismith at the back post.
The forward had the ball in the net in the first half only to be caught offside and it looks like the flag should have gone up again this time.
However, play goes on and Naismith's header clips off the head of defender Berat Xhimshiti and past goalkeeper thomas Strakosha.
Scotland 0-0 Albania
Albania get the second half under way, their white shirts shining brightly in the Hampden floodlights.
HT: Scotalnd 0-0 Albania
Albania are also making an alteration and Inter Zapresic defender Herdi Prenga is on for Yenisey Krasnoyarsk midfielder Enis Gavazaj.
That suggests a change of shape - a more defensive one - from Christian Panucci.
HT: Scotland 0-0 Albania
Scotland are making a change and Stuart Armstrong replaces Kevin McDonald in midfield.
Whether or not that is because of an injury, it is a positive move as the Southampton man is more attack minded.
HT: Scotland 0-0 Albania

Quote MessageIt was a shocker of a miss from Naismith, but Scotland have beaten Albania up and they need to put them away
HT: Scotland 0-0 Albania
The statistics tell their own story of the opening 45 minutes.
Albania coach Christian Panucci will be pleased to get his under-pressure side into the dressing-room unscathed.

Quote MessageScotland need to keep the delivery of a high quality, maybe mix it up a little bit with the odd short one from time to time but keep them under pressure, keep testing them and asking questions of the Albanian defence
Scotland have improved immensely since Friday's capitulation to Belgium and Alex McLeish appears to have got his formation spot on.
They have dominated Albania, who have only rarely threatened - and so far haven't tested goalkeeper Allan McGregor.
A performance full of intensity, skill and speed, but they have yet to make the breakthrough and a clinical finish yet eludes them.
Steven Naismith's miss brings back memories of Chris Iwelumo's famous miss-kick in front of goal against Norway back in 2008 and hopefully it will not prove as crucial.

Scotland 0-0 Albania
As they have threatened, Albania break quickly on the Scots and Ledian Memushaj strides confidently from the half-way line to the edge of the penalty box.
However, the Pescara midfielder stubbs his shot into the grass and it slides well wide.

Quote MessageAlbania are struggling to build up any passages of play in a defensive area. They're doing a bit better in midfield, but their captain isn't any great shakes defensively or using the ball forward
Scotland 0-0 Albania
What did I say about finding the net?
The Scots do exactly that, right on cue. Only they also find the offside flag.
Andy Robertson finds Callum McGregor inside the penalty box and the midfielder's neat clip into the path of Steven Naismith allows the forward to prod into the net.
However, the forward was just in front of the final defender.
Scotland 0-0 Albania
Scotland are pressing Albania high and are harassing the visitors into mistakes.
A little more composure in front of goal and Alex McLeish's side will surely make the breakthrough.
But they have to be wary of a side who look like they can be dangerous on the break.
Scotland 0-0 Belgium

Scotland are being very deliberate in the final third, trying to thread little passes into the area. Nobody seems willing to take a shot at goal from the edge of the box though.

Quote MessageYou'd like to see Andy Robertson be a little bit more positive when he gets into these areas. He seems to want to take the touch and play it back. Just go and take it towards the byline, keep the pressure on. That's the only real fault so far

The main issue with Hampden in the eyes of the supporters is the view from behind the goal. Not tonight, however...
The absent fans are missing a cracking home performance that only lacks a goal.
Scotland 0-0 Albania
Kieran Tierney has been handed a centre-half role tonight, but the Celtic man decides to show what he can do at left-back, combining with Andy Robertson before whipping in a low cross that just slips through Steven Naismith's legs in front of goal off a defender.

Plenty perspiration but not much inspiration from Scotland. Much of the game has been played in the Albania half, but it looks like set-pieces may be the most likely avenue to success for the Scots.
