    FT: Scotland 0-0 Israel (5-3pens)

    At least you can say that Scotland stayed firm at the back - and they will have to do so again in the final on 12 November.

    Having had half an eye on the action in Oslo, Serbia were a free-flowing side able to create plenty of chances against hosts Norway.

  8. FULL-TIME Scotland 0-0 Israel (5-3 pens)published at 22:29 British Summer Time 8 October 2020

    It was a turgid 120 minutes of goalless football, but Scotland will put that behind them after a perfect five penalties.

    Israel were slightly the better side, with a header wide by Scott McTominay and a Liam Cooper header in the final touch of the ball that bounced off the face of the post being the only moments of threat from Scotland.

    That just needed a toe.

    Manor Solomon's cross beats Scott McTominay, but Shon Weissman just fails to get on the end of it as it flashes across Scotland's six-yard box.

    It's all petering out for Scotland. They can't get near the Israel penalty box as they consistently run out of ideas.

    Is there one last chance?
