A 3-2 Scotland victory and what a game! 
Where to start re this roller-coaster of a match? McTominay dreadful in the 1st half, prob one of his worst performances ever and lucky not to have given away two or three goals due to a lack of defensive vigilance on his part - he's not a defender with a top defender's instinct to detect danger! Paterson also very nervous and inexperienced in such a tense game. And Grant Hanley's absence confirmed how well he has played for Scotland during this campaign - sorely missed and no organiser's presence with Scotland's defence "all over the place" in that 1st half. Super John Mac's goal a "cracking" one and a welcome one too and then that fragile Scotland defence concedes the second goal almost immediately and 1-2 Israel - WTF! although surely a highly suspicious hand baw offence preceding Gordon's save!? Just great for Clarke to get the players in at HT and "get them telt" in no uncertain terms to play properly or lose this WC campaign altogether - A GREAT RESPONSE BTW WITH SCOTLAND PLAYERS STARTING TO PLAY (AND BELIEVE!) AT THE LEVEL THAT IS EXPECTED OF THEM AND WHAT A FANTASTIC GAME THAT UNFOLDED IN THAT 2ND HALF!! Another VAR decision going our way (phewwwwww!!!), Dykes vindicated just after his dreadful pk effort that had me wondering if Scotland were gonna self-destruct again due to too much pressure/expectation!! But the boys were undeterred this time and what a surprise to see McTominay score his 1st goal, the winner for Scotland after me seriously thinking that Rocky was gonna deny us the victory that the guys had pressed and attacked for in the final 15 mins of this match with some great moves to beat him - JOB DONE AND A HAPPY DRIVE HOME TO CELEBRATE! 
Gotta deal with the "wee matches" now v The Faroes and Moldova - NAE COMPLACENCY PLEASE!!
