  1. Scotland 1-0 Poland

    Opinions, eh?

  2. 'We haven't seen much from Adams'

    Willie Miller
    Former Scotland defender on BBC Sportsound

    We haven't seen too much from Che Adams, he'll be a little disappointed he's not had more opportunities.

  3. Late cameo for Brown

    Scotland 1-0 Poland

    Jacob Brown takes over from Che Adams for the three minutes of stoppage time just signalled.

    Adams has done a good job of leading the Scotland line this evening, putting in a power of work.

  4. Scotland 1-0 Poland

    As the clock ticks down, Scotland are doing well at holding on to the ball.

    Ryan Jack, playing his first international since November 2020, decides to have a crack but his shot is blocked.

  5. 'Seven wins in a row would be magnificent'

    Scotland 1-0 Poland

    Willie Miller
    Former Scotland defender on BBC Sportsound

    Steve Clarke has got a very good performance from these players. Maybe the chances Poland have created will cause him a little concern. But seven wins in a row would be a magnificent record.

  6. Scotland 1-0 Poland

    Another Poland change as Adam Buksa enters the fray, taking over from Jan Bednarek.

    A forward for a defender.

  7. Scotland 1-0 Poland

    Che Adams can't quite believe it as he hooks the ball against the head of defender Kamil Glik and the officials don't award a corner.

  8. Scotland 1-0 Poland

    Matty Cash lands awkwardly in the Scotland penalty box but the Aston Villa full-back looks like he's fine after a spot of treatment.

  9. Triple change for Scotland

    Scotland 1-0 Poland

    Stuart Armstrong, Kenny McLean and Ryan Jack are on for Scotland.

    Ryan Christie, Callum McGregor and Billy Gilmour are the midfielders making way.

  10. Wales' lead reduced

    Scotland 1-0 Poland

    During that passage of excitement at Hampden, Austria pulled one back in Cardiff.

    Wales lead 2-1.

  11. 'It's brilliant to watch'

    Scotland 1-0 Poland

    Leanne Crichton
    Ex-Scotland international on BBC Sportscene

    It's lovely, absolutely brilliant to watch. The John McGinn delivery is inch-perfect, the worst area to defend - almost impossible. The header from Kieran Tierney, he just does enough to cushion it, glancing it into the net.

    GOAL Scotland 1-0 Poland

    Kieran Tierney

    The breakthrough!

    John McGinn flights a free-kick in from the right and in comes Kieran Tierney to steer a header home from six yards.

    A first international goal for the Arsenal defender.

    Scotland goal

  13. 'Gaffer's approval'

    Scotland 0-0 Poland

    Scott Mullen
    BBC Scotland at Hampden

    Steve Clarke leads the applause for Nathan Patterson. The Scotland boss raises his hands in appreciation of the Everton man as he's substituted off. Two pats on the back and he's off to the bench.

    What a performance from the young man tonight.

  14. 'Hickey has had a meteoric rise'

    Scotland 0-0 Poland

    Craig Levein
    Former Scotland manager on BBC Sportsound

    Aaron Hickey has had a meteoric rise - debut at 16, scored in a derby against Hibs, started a cup final. He's got the temperament to deal with this and his career is going to go from strength to strength.

  15. Hickey & O'Donnell off the bench

    Scotland 0-0 Poland

    Aaron Hickey is on for his Scotland debut, along with Stephen O'Donnell, as Steve Clarke changes up his wing-backs.

  16. 'The shot almost takes him off his feet!'

    Scotland 0-0 Poland

    Leanne Crichton
    Ex-Scotland international on BBC Sportscene

    Billy Gilmour anticipates the touch, he is so strong with the left foot. The shot almost takes him off his feet! It's just sensing danger, and that's what you can see in Steve Clarke's side - every single player is desperate to keep a clean sheet. There is always someone covering.

  17. Scotland 0-0 Poland

    Not so good from Scott McTominay this time as he surrenders possession in the centre circle and two Poland forwards break away.

    Krzysztof Piątek cuts inside Grant Hanley and fires a shot beyond Craig Gordon but Billy Gilmour rescues McTominay with an outstanding goal-line clearance!

  18. Scotland 0-0 Poland

    Matty Cash makes a good, surging run forward for Poland and Scott McTominay needs to look lively to get his toe to the ball before an onrushing forward can reach the low cross.

  19. Scotland 0-0 Poland

    Grzegorz Krychowiak is replaced by Sebastian Szymanski.

    When will Scotland boss Steve Clarke make his first change?

  20. 'Why does he not go down?'

    Scotland 0-0 Poland

    Willie Miller
    Former Scotland defender on BBC Sportsound

    If there's a touch, he's got every right to go down because it's knocked him off his stride. If he does go down, the referee has got to make a decision. If there was a touch, why does he not go down?
