Donathan Posted September 21, 2022 Share Posted September 21, 2022 1 minute ago, Arch Stanton said: No, would only give us 11 points. If Ukraine also beat Armenia by a barrowload they would also have 11 but a better GD. GD would be irrelevant as we’d have 4 points in the H2H 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ancientnoise Posted September 21, 2022 Share Posted September 21, 2022 2 minutes ago, Donathan said: Believe so. We’d have 11 and Ukraine would too, but head to head is the tiebreaker If we play like that against the Irish, we won't have to worry about draws. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Central Belt Caley Posted September 21, 2022 Share Posted September 21, 2022 (edited) I don’t want to get too carried away as Ukraine were missing arguably their best player in Zinchenko but that was very pleasing to watch. Hendry and Mckenna were steady with a few shaky moments. Patterson and latterly Hickey were both good. Tierney was brilliant carrying the ball forward. Mctominay was playing in the position he plays in most weeks and done well. Christie, Mcginn and Adams were causing problems but just lacked that final touch. Liked the change to the 4-2-3-1 and I think it suited us a lot better.

Donathan Posted September 21, 2022 Share Posted September 21, 2022 GD is the tiebreaker in fifa competitions (e.g., World Cup qualifying) but in UNL and euro qualifying it’s H2H 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ewan8472 Posted September 21, 2022 Share Posted September 21, 2022 Brilliant result. Some wonderful play. Special mention to Hendry and McKenna who came on to a good game. I hope Nathan is o.k. ! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BFTD Posted September 21, 2022 Share Posted September 21, 2022 3-0 and never really looked in danger at the back, even in the opening ten minutes. 2 minutes ago, Cardle is Magic said: Great result and turned into a dominant performance. Much better. What the f**k happened to Ukraine? They looked terrible all night. I think they figured they'd hold us at bay tonight and nick the odd goal on the break, before finishing us off closer to home. It did not work out well for them. If you look at their results over the past few tournaments, they're really not all that. Oddly enough, they seem to have a bit of trouble scoring enough. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Utdtillidie2 Posted September 21, 2022 Share Posted September 21, 2022 We score first, easy game. They score first, well they didn’t. Great result and performance especially second half. Dominated that game. Thats not Scotland! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pub car king Posted September 21, 2022 Share Posted September 21, 2022 Thought mctominey strolled that game tonight he was in about everything.

Ro Sham Bo Posted September 21, 2022 Share Posted September 21, 2022 Apart from slow starts in the first 10 minutes of both halves that was really an excellent performance overall. The work rate and intensity was absolutely spot on. Shout out to Hickey in particular, who came on and did a very good job against the Ukrainian left winger. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
