What next?

Scotland go to Wembley on Friday evening to take on England, then the group concludes against Croatia next Tuesday.

Three or four points might be enough to get through but that's a lot easier said than done and the Czechs have a very handy head start on us now.

Scotland unlucky?

Charlie Adam

Former Scotland midfielder on BBC Radio 5 Live

My overriding feeling at the end of that is that they were just a bit unlucky.

'Two moments of brilliance'

Kenny McLean

Scotland international midfielder on BBC One

It was a game we thought we could win - and we were good enough to win it. We just didn't turn up on the day as much as we'd like to. Two moments of brilliance from their striker, but we had our chances and we just didn't take them

'Nothing between the teams'

Darren Fletcher

Former Scotland captain on BBC One

It's bitterly disappointing. Everyone was saying the Czech Republic game was a must-win and we couldn't lose it, but we lost it. There was nothing between the two teams, but they took their chances and were clinical. We've still got two more games to go and we've got to pick ourselves up

'Schick shines for Czechs'

Pat Nevin

Former Scotland winger on BBC Radio 5 Live

Patrik Schick has played very, very well. Hanley did a great job against him but he was beaten in the air for the first goal and there is nothing you can do as a defender when he shoots from 40-50 yards out.

'Thoroughly deserved for Czechs'

FULL-TIME Scotland 0-2 Czech Republic

Not the return to major tournament football we had in mind for Scotland.

A double for Patrik Schick breaks hearts at Hampden.

Scotland are bottom of Group D after the first round of matches

A close-range header from Kevin Nisbet is deflected behind. In comes the corner but no Scottish player can get on the end of Ryan Fraser's delivery.

Four minutes to go

Into stoppage time...

Near-miracle required.

GREAT SAVE!

Almost 3-0 but David Marshall is able to make a sprawling save to keep out a close-range header.

It's pretty quiet at Hampden now, with fans resigned to a damaging opening defeat.

Scotland are chucking everything they have at this but time is running out as the Czechs introduce two new substitutes, taking off star striker Patrik Schick, who scored two fantastic goals.

'Brilliant by Forrest'

Pat Nevin

Former Scotland winger on BBC Radio 5 Live

Brilliant play there by James Forrest, makes great use of the space, beats two players but once again that last desperate trailing leg of a Czech defender makes the block.

A lovely counter-attack from Scotland as James Forrest collects a great cross-field pass from Andy Robertson and jinks his way past two defenders inside the penalty area, but a third gets in the way with a diving block tackle.

Kevin Nisbet finds room for a shot as the spins on to a pass from Che Adams but it takes a little nick off a defender and flies straight into the arms of the keeper.

A hat-trick chance for Patrik Schich but the Czech striker drills a shot straight at David Marshall.

Final changes for Scotland

Two more subs for Scotland and this time it's James Forrest and Kevin Nisbet replacing Stephen O'Donnell and Lyndon Dykes.

Should Dykes do better?

The ball takes an age to drop for Scott McTominay inside the Czech penalty area as the Manchester United midfielder hooks a shoot high over the target.
