Ah well. Prob best that SJM gets hame as soon as and gets some rest.

Real business starts in a few weeks.

Must be so frustrating for McGinn. Busts a gut to get a cracking cross in only for it to fall to a team mate who couldn't trap cement.

Endrick v Ginny. Undeniably peculiar, utterly delicious.

[Somniloquism]

Well he is still out there for at least 5 more days.

I was expecting that battle in the Europa League Final then Lyon fell flat on their face.

I saw that.  Great cross

Commentator said something similar here, waxing lyrical of the way SJM controlled the ball and his general contribution.

Fuck all chance of them going through with all the rest of the games to play

[TonyD]

They didn’t pass the ball quickly enough.
And gifted a couple of goals.

Looking for positives I'd say Scotland defended well for the last 20 minutes and McTominay should have scored at least a hattrick.

The more games, the more chance of staying there normally. I suspect it will go to Sunday. Just a reminder if they do fluke through, and England top the group, we could meet in the R16 if all of the Mexicans get Montezuma's Revenge next week.

[TonyD]

Neymar looks the footballer equivalent of Mickey Rourke

[Pete3206]

As TonyD says, fuck all chance.

[CT Villan]

McTominay was garbage in front of goal - couldn't hit the proverbial cow's arse with his double-bass. Thought SJM was the pick of the bunch for Scotland, Gunn made a few decent saves too. Most of the team just not at the appropriate level.

[TonyD]

Simply canny give Brazil two gifts.
