Have Manchester United ever considered this lad? 6 min: On the sidelines, Ivan Jovanović, with that Warhol grey bombshell of a hairdo, is crouched as McTominay is sent away and shoots. Adams can’t pick up the rebound. 4 min: Should Scotland have had a penalty? Che Adams went over in the box but again, waved away. Mavropanos was in all sorts of lumber. 3 min: Early penalty shout for a Greek penalty, waved away. Scott McTominay, his air grown out in the fashion of a Napoli crack player, makes a tackle. Goalflash: Iceland 1-0 Kosovo (Okarsson, 2) (2-2 aggregate) Away we go in Glasgow1 min: The Hampden Roar gets us underway. The BBC coverage is lacking commentary which is fun. Sir Alex Ferguson is there, leading the tributes to Denis Law by waving his No. 10 shirt. A big handshake and a smile for Steve Clarke. *sob* That was a rather special moment. Here’s the Flower of Scotland, second verse a capella. One change, Ryan Christie in for Lewis Ferguson, Bournemouth for Bologna, two talent factories where Scottish football is appreciated. Steve Clarke spoke to the BBC: “Lewis [Ferguson] is really unlucky not to be in the team. I just feel at home, hopefully we start on the front foot and Ryan [Christie] is probably slightly more attacking than Lewis and he can give us something a wee bit different. “The good thing on the quick turnaround is we’re playing the same team, so it’s very fresh what happened on Thursday. We want to replicate the very good first half for 90 minutes.” The Scottish fans are singing of the bonny bonny banks of Loch Lomond, of high roads and low roads. At Hampden, the place he loved so much, as the proudest of Scots, there’s a minute’s appreciation for Denis Law, probably the greatest player his country produced. An earlier score. Georgia played Armenia and won 6-1, a 9-1 aggregate win. We start with the 5pm kick-offs, UK time, and this is a big one for Scotland. Greece are very much improved but Stevie Clarke’s team hold a lead. Now, can they do this? Or are we ready for another vale of tears?
