    He has tried to pass it past the goalkeeper with no pace, no real accuracy, and if he just squares it, Lyndon Dykes has a tap-in.

  2. GREAT SAVE!published at 21:18 British Summer Time 12 October 2021

    Faroe Islands 0-0 Scotland

    Callum McGregor slips in Billy Gilmour who takes a great first touch, but the finish is tame and Gestsson gets a big foot to it.

    Communication non existent in the Scottish backline as Jonsson is free to whip in a fantastic ball.

    But Kieran Tierney is there to deny what surely would have been a certain goal.

  4. Postpublished at 21:15 British Summer Time 12 October 2021

    Faroe Islands 0-0 Scotland

    Scotland have got the home side camped in their half, but their approach play all feels a bit desperate.

    Just over 15 minutes to find something.

    The Faroes have hardly been up the park in the second half. Scotland are keeping their familiar shape right now but maybe there will come a time we need to throw caution to the wind.

    Another cross is cleared and falls to Billy Gilmour, who this time leathers it goalwards.

    But the Norwich City midfielder is denied by a huge block from the home defence.

  7. 'Patience needed across the board'published at 21:12 British Summer Time 12 October 2021

    Faroe Islands 0-0 Scotland

    Willie Miller
    Former Scotland defender on BBC Sportsound

    Scotland have got to learn not to sell themselves at the back too easily and present chances. There's plenty of time to rescue this game yet.

  8. McGregor on for Hendrypublished at 21:11 British Summer Time 12 October 2021

    Faroe Islands 0-0 Scotland

    First change for the Scots as Callum McGregor is on to replace Jack Hendry.

    Scott McTominay drops into the back three.

  9. YELLOW CARDpublished at 21:10 British Summer Time 12 October 2021

    Faroe Islands 0-0 Scotland

    Like Ryan Christie, Lyndon Dykes picks up a yellow card for an aerial challenge.

    And like Christie, will now miss the Moldova trip. Not ideal.

  10. CLOSE!published at 21:09 British Summer Time 12 October 2021

    Faroe Islands 0-0 Scotland

    The home side take their first flurry forward as Rolantsson flies down the left, cuts inside and tees up his skipper Hansson.

    But the captain's guided effort is just wide of the near post.

  11. 'Keep asking the question'published at 21:07 British Summer Time 12 October 2021

    Faroe Islands 0-0 Scotland

    Willie Miller
    Former Scotland defender on BBC Sportsound

    You've just got to keep believing in what you're doing, keep asking the question. Maybe we need to look at isolating their defenders one on one to make the chances more clear cut.

  12. CLOSE!published at 21:06 British Summer Time 12 October 2021

    Faroe Islands 0-0 Scotland

    Faroes deal with another ball into the box, but it's only out as far as Billy Gilmour.

    The young midfielder drives an effort into the ground from the edge of the area which bounces just wide.

  13. Postpublished at 21:04 British Summer Time 12 October 2021

    Faroe Islands 0-0 Scotland

    Ryan Fraser has been far more involved as he whips in another cracking ball.

    The cross is dealt with but falls to Kieran Tierney, who rattles a shot miles over from range.

  14. Postpublished at 21:03 British Summer Time 12 October 2021

    Faroe Islands 0-0 Scotland

    The game has hit a bit of a lull as the clock hits the hour mark.

    Scotland need an injection of life from somewhere. Anywhere.

  15. 'Robertson & Fraser dragging Scots forward'published at 21:01 British Summer Time 12 October 2021

    It looks as though our wing-backs have been told to go higher up the park. You just need them to be accurate with their crosses now. The Faroes aren't opposing them as they roam forward which will help.

  17. Denmark take lead against Austriapublished at 20:58 British Summer Time 12 October 2021

    Denmark are on their way to securing top spot as they open the scoring at home to the Austrians.

  18. CLOSE!published at 20:57 British Summer Time 12 October 2021

    Faroe Islands 0-0 Scotland

    Scott McTominay bursts into the Faroes box and lashes towards goal, but it is the wrong side of the near post.

    Wasn't the kindest of angles but probably should have gone for the other side.

  19. Israel double their leadpublished at 20:55 British Summer Time 12 October 2021

    Israel are 2-0 up on Moldova now. As things stand, they are just two points behind Scotland.

  20. Postpublished at 20:54 British Summer Time 12 October 2021

    Faroes Islands 0-0 Scotland

    Scotland look much better in the opening five minutes of this second half as Ryan Fraser's wicked delivery can't be diverted goalward by Lyndon Dykes.
