FT: Ukraine 0-4 Scotland
Scotland boss Pedro Martinez Losa tells BBC Sportsound: "I’m sure we can repeat this kind of performance more often. The heart and dedication of the team was very good.
"We knew we could exploit space in behind. We had moments we could control the game in possession. I’m pleased with that.
"In this moment we can’t ask the players for more. Ukraine are a good team coached by one of the best in the world. In this moment of the season, every player gave everything.
"It’s a step forward. We have to get consistency in the line-up so we can compete. The players are competing for places in training and that’s what you want as a manager."

Quote MessageThe second half performance was disjointed in comparison to the first half. We didn't keep the ball as well, the tempo dropped, we didn't create. But for me it was a lack of game time, there was a lot of fatigue. Let's not look at that and just take the positives from the first half

Quote MessageIt's always difficult going away from home. They only had four days preparation before tonight but managed to score four goals. Loads of positives to take from this game
FT: Ukraine 0-4 Scotland
Scotland end their qualifying campaign away to the Faroe Islands in September.
A win in the Faroes will guarantee second spot, but a play-off place may already be secured depending on Hungary's results.
A very comfortable evening for Scotland puts them within touching distance of a World Cup play-off place.
The damage was done in the first half thanks to Caroline Weir's penalty, Erin Cuthbert's finish and a brace from Martha Thomas.
The second half was largely a non-event, but the win is all that matters for Pedro Martinez Losa.
