    Ooft, Mark Flekken's pass out is picked off by Billy Gilmour, whose shot is then deflected wide off Tijjan Reijnders.

    Scotland have made a strong start to the second half.

    It's an incredible save. You have to say the skill from Memphis Depay was magnificent.

    There's not a lot of power in the shot but it is a brilliant save from Angus Gunn at full stretch.

    My word what a save from Angus Gunn.

    Memphis Depay does wonderfully to let the ball run across him and turn, then his low shot on the stretch forces Gunn to fling himself low to his left and push the ball away.

    Up the other end John McGinn lashes a shot in and Mark Flekken tips it away. Breathless.

    Another brilliant Scotland move.

    Andy Robertson puts another cross in and Ryan Christie is inches away from connecting.

    It eventually gets to Billy Gilmour on the edge of the box, but his shot is drilled into the ground and then the goalkeeper claims it.

    That last little touch, that last little fake is what ends the opportunity for Scott McTominay.

    It is a brilliant chance to get Scotland back level and he should do better there.

    That's a good chance for Scott McTominay.

    He takes the ball down well in the box, works the ball on to his right foot and should just pull the trigger.

    He throws in another feint and Tijjani Reijnders recovers and makes the block.

    Not to be too happy clappy, but Scotland were popping the ball about with such confidence in that first half it really was a joy to watch.

    You always just wonder whether they have enough up top against the very best teams.

    Virgil van Dijk has been mostly comfortable when it's come into the box. Will that change?

    Teams are out.

    I think Lawrence Shankland has done well, he has linked the game well.

    He is starting a game that a lot of people maybe thought he wouldn't and he's still having to adjust to being a starter in this team so I think Shankland is doing fine.

    I think Scotland have coped really well.

    Scotland will be disappointed to be going in at half time a goal down.

    Steve Clarke's side were so good before the Dutch got the better of Angus Gunn with a wonder strike.

    But, Scotland's response to losing the goal was positive. The heads didn't go down.

    They'll take plenty from their performance from the vast majority of the opening 45 minutes, playing with confidence and belief.

    No doubt that's exactly what the Scotland boss will be imposing upon his players during the break.

    If Angus Gunn moved his feet a bit quicker, he might have been able to get something on it because it's head height, not right in the top corner.

    Having said that, it's a fabulous strike.

    Scotland have been excellent. You have got to still give them credit for the performance.

    The Netherlands haven't been at their best but they've still looked a threat when they've gone forward. That's what these nations can do.

  13. HALF-TIME - Netherlands 1-0 Scotlandpublished at 20:36 Greenwich Mean Time 22 March

    Well, Tijjani Reijnders' sweet strike is the difference.

    Other than that, Scotland have had a pretty good first half.

    They almost took the lead when Ryan Christie's header was tipped on to the bar by goalkeeper Mark Flekken.

    But Steve Clarke's men trail in Amsterdam. What have they got after the break?

    Kieran Tierney bails out his old mate Jack Hendry as Max Wieffer aimed to pounce on his error.

    Netherlands are looking confident now.

    Scotland go up the other end and win a corner.

    Billy Gilmour finds space just inside the box, but he's off balance and his shot is harmless.

    Five or six minutes ago we were talking about how the crowd were frustrated because it was side to side and the Dutch were waiting for that perfect opening.

    It was 20, 25 yards out so it was not exactly the perfect opening but it was a great strike.

    It just looked like it was another Dutch move that was going to break down but Tijjani Reijnders finds the back of the net.

    You have got to feel for Scotland because they have performed so well in this first half.

    It's disappointing because I don't think the Dutch deserve to be 1-0.

    But, it's pinpoint accuracy from the AC Milan man.

    A beauty.

    The AC Milan midfielder steps on to Cody Gakpo's pass and drives the ball into the top corner from 20 yards.

    On first viewing I thought Angus Gunn had no chance, but on second viewing he probably could have got across quicker.

    Anyway, Scotland's bright start extinguished.

    John McGinn goes in the book for an equally blatant pull back on Cody Gakpo.

    I'm still baffled the Dutch forward wasn't carded for that dive. Catch it on Sportscene later, really poor.

    Good play from Scotland as Scott McTominay slips in Ryan Christie.

    His low cross is met by John McGinn seven yards out, but he sends it over the bar under pressure from Virgil van Dijk.
