    Are there any Norwich fans in here that can tell us why Billy Gilmour can't get a game for your club?

    Outstanding again tonight.

    That's Stuart Armstrong's last involvement.

    He's off for Hibs striker Kevin Nisbet.

    Andy Robertson's cross is just out the reach of Stuart Armstrong.

    The ball breaks for Billy Gilmour whose scuffed effort drags wide.

    If the wee man scores it's taps aff across the country.

    It's brilliant play from Callum McGregor. Che Adams was clearly offside but McGregor was brilliant in the build-up chopping in and out of the defenders.

    The Tartan Army are chanting for VAR to get involved.

    Clearly offside, though.

    Another goal disallowed for Che Adams.

    Callum McGregor chops onto his left foot and forces Namasco into a save.

    Adams taps in but he's offside. Scotland fancy more goals.

    That replay is quite hilarious.

    Moldova keeper Namasco just throws himself to the ground trying to get a free-kick he was never going to get.

    Looked like a glitch from Fifa or something.

    Billy Gilmour's corner to the back post is met by Liam Cooper.

    For some reason, the goalkeeper is lying on the ground. But the ball is lashed clear off the back post.

    On the back of qualifying for the Euros, to get a play-off spot shows the squad is growing, developing and getting better. They believe in each other and the manager.

    Fantastic ball in from the left by Andy Robertson looks like it's going to find John McGinn at the back post, but it's headed away by Rozgoniuc.

    McGinn's corner is dealt with.

    The quality of our two goals this evening has been absolutely tremendous. The back-heel nutmeg from McGinn is exceptional and that's Patterson got a goal and an assist too.

    GOAL! Moldova 0-2 Scotlandpublished at 18:22 Greenwich Mean Time 12 November 2021

    Che Adams

    And another goal is what we have!

    Sublime from Nathan Patterson and John McGinn again down the right.

    McGinn nutmegs his man with a backheel pass to Patterson, who puts the ball low across the box to Che Adams.

    The Southampton striker has missed a few chances tonight but slots this one away.

    Again, can't disagree with Thommo.

    But for the sake of the nation's heartrates, another goal wouldn't go a miss.

    We didn't look fragile at all in the first half but we've not given Moldova any hope at all in this second half, which is a positive.

    John McGinn's dangerous free-kick from the right is dealt with well by the Moldovan defence before Namasco comes to claim.

    Moments later, Scotland are threatening again as Billy Gilmour picks up a Stuart Armstrong pass on the edge of the box.

    The Norwich City man's left-foot strike is blocked, however.

    Stuart Armstrong has been everywhere tonight.

    The Southampton man has another effort on goal, but it's blocked by the home defence.

    Billy Gilmour is such an incredible talent. He's having a fantastic match and he'll just be enjoying playing some football again tonight.

    Billy Gilmour feints inside and sends Bolohan to the kiosks for the Moldovan equivalent of a Scotch pie.

    The young midfielder wins his side a free-kick in the process.

    Bit of a lull in the game as Moldova are able to settle into the second half.

    Scotland have had the intensity high for the majority of this, but they need to keep that up to avoid giving the hosts encouragement.
