FT: Croatia 3-1 Scotland
Well, one point and one goal wasn't quite what we had in mind when Scotland ended their long absence from major finals football.
The opening defeat to the Czech Republic was a huge anti-climax and hugely damaging. A gutsy draw at Wembley gave us hope but Croatia were far too strong for a tired-looking side at Hampden.
Now, we look forward to the next round of World Cup qualifying fixtures, while the Euros move on to the knockout rounds.
In September, Steve Clarke's men face Denmark (A), Moldova (H) and Austria (A) and we really need to take something from at least one of those away fixtures against the two top seeds.
Thanks for your company and good night.
