  1. Turnbull on for Dykes

    Scotland 1-0 Moldova

    David Turnbull has got five minutes or so to show Steve Clarke what he can do as he takes over from goalscorer Lyndon Dykes.

  2. Scotland 1-0 Moldova

    Kieran Tierney is at left-back now and here he comes steaming into the Moldova penalty area to drill a tempting pass into the danger zone. No one in dark blue can get a touch.

  3. A good night in the making?

    Scotland 1-0 Moldova

    Willie Miller
    Former Scotland defender on BBC Sportsound

    You want the second goal and you'd take it gladly, but if this finishes 1-0 and Denmark draw and Austria get beat, that wouldn't be a bad night's work

  4. YELLOW CARD Ionita (Moldova)

    Scotland 1-0 Moldova

    A crunching, late tackle on Ryan Christie results in the first booking of the evening.

  5. Scotland 1-0 Moldova

    A wild shot from Che Adams sails high over the target.

  6. 'Love watching Gilmour'

    Scotland 1-0 Moldova

    Craig Levein
    Former Scotland manager on BBC Sportsound

    I love watching Billy Gilmour. All the angles he pulls off, demanding the ball off the centre-backs. And you see him getting annoyed if they don't give him it

    Billy GilmourSNS

  7. Scotland 1-0 Moldova

    It looks like Steve Clarke is thinking about Tuesday's game now as he withdraws Billy Gilmour and captain Andy Robertson.

    Kenny McLean and Liam Cooper are on.

    That has done nothing for my growing nerves... Another goal please.

  8. Bumper crowd

    Scotland 1-0 Moldova

    The crowd has been announced at 40,869.

    That's an impressive turn-out.

    The fans deserve another goal.

  9. CLOSE!

    Scotland 1-0 Moldova

    Che Adams sets himself for a shot 22 yards out. It takes a deflection off the legs of a nearby defender and bobbles a foot or so wide.

  10. Goal-fest in Haifa...

    Scotland 1-0 Moldova

    Now Israel make it 4-2.

  11. 'Energy injection needed'

    Scotland 1-0 Moldova

    Craig Levein
    Former Scotland manager on BBC Sportsound

    An injection of energy is needed. Adams coming on will help with that up top

  12. Double change for Scotland

    Scotland 1-0 Moldova

    Che Adams and Callum McGregor are on for Scotland, replacing Kevin Nisbet and John McGinn.

  13. Austria fighting back

    Scotland 1-0 Moldova

    The deficit is down to one in Haifa as Austria strike again to make it 3-2 to Israel.

  14. 'He's got to score!'

    Scotland 1-0 Moldova

    Craig Levein
    Former Scotland manager on BBC Sportsound

    It's brilliant play. You've got to credit Nesbit for the pass, but Gilmour has got to score!

  15. CLOSE!

    Scotland 1-0 Israel

    Kevin Nisbet was looking a bit dejected after two loose passes in quick succession.

    But the Hibs striker lifts his head again and hammers in a shot that the keeper saves before dinking a wonderful pass into the path of Billy Gilmour, who slides a close-range shot inches wide.

    Another brilliant chance wasted!

  16. 'Nisbet not taking part'

    Scotland 1-0 Moldova

    Craig Levein
    Former Scotland manager on BBC Sportsound

    Nisbet had that nice little pass for Patterson in the lead up to goal, but apart from that he hasn't really taken part in the match

  17. Scotland 1-0 Israel

    Let's get this one out of the way first, Tom.

    The Hampden crowd burst into Flower of Scotland, urging their team on to find another goal or two.

  18. 'Chance for Scotland to hurt Austria'

    Scotland 1-0 Moldova

    Tom English
    BBC Scotland's chief sports writer on Sportsound

    If Austria lose tonight, there is a real chance for Scotland to go over there on Tuesday and hurt them. When you've got the chance, you've got to be ruthless

  19. 'McGinn strikes too early'

    Scotland 1-0 Moldova

    Craig Levein
    Former Scotland manager on BBC Sportsound

    McGinn's taken that too early. He could've taken another touch and he would've had his pick of either side

  20. Scotland 1-0 Moldova

    John McGinn is offered a gift as a terrible Moldova pass out of defence comes his way but his weak shot is blocked.

    Scotland then threaten for a corner as Grant Hanley muscles his way through a ruck of bodies only to nod over the top.
