    FT: Scotland 0-2 Czech Republic

    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.

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

    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

    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

    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.

    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.
