So it comes to this. Two games in Glasgow, one point required. Two easy games on paper, but you never know.

GK - Marshall
DEF - Fox, Whittaker, Wilson, Martin
MID - D.Fletcher, McArthur, Kennedy, Brown
FOR - Watt, Rhodes

5 - Scotland 1-0 (Rhodes)
34 - Scotland 2-0 (D.Fletcher)
45 - Grimmer replaces Wilson
54 - Scotland 3-0 (D.Fletcher)
65 - Morrison replaces Kennedy

SCOTLAND QUALIFIES FOR EURO 2016

Pretty happy with that!

We field an experimental side for our final clash with Kazakhstan. Tom Cairney (24yo midfielder from Hull) and Andrew Robertson (21yo defender from Dundee United) are given their maiden Scots caps.

GK - McGregor
DEF - Robertson, Grimmer, Wilson, Hanley
MID - D.Fletcher, Cairney, Ness, Snodgrass
FOR - Watt, Rhodes

4 - Scotland 1-0 (D.Fletcher)
20 - Scotland 2-0 (Wilson)
56 - Scotland 3-0 (Watt)
57 - McArthur replaces Cairney, Kennedy replaces Ness
79 - Scotland 4-0 (Rhodes)

Fantastic scoreline, although I expected no less.

Group 9 Final Standings

Croatia have also qualified, by virtue of being the third-placed team in the pools with the best result. Eight more teams have qualified for the playoffs for the final four spots.

Denmark v Austria - 1-0, 0-1 - Austria qualifies by penalty shootout
Poland v Israel - 1-0, 1-2 - Israel qualifies by penalty shootout

One more friendly before we go to the Euro 2016 pool draw.

The isle is full of noises, sounds, and sweet airs, that give delight, and hurt not. Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments will hum about mine ears; and sometimes voices, That, if I then had wak'd after long sleep, will make me sleep again; and then, in dreaming, The clouds methought would open and show riches ready to drop upon me, that, when I wak'd, I cried to dream again.
