New coach, new players, but same old failings hamper Scotland
Self-inflicted wounds cost Scotland on Sebastien Pocognoli's Hampden debut, writes Tom English.
Scotland's new coach Sebastien Pocognoli and his players faced a tough match against Switzerland at Hampden Park. The team struggled defensively, leading to a red card for Jack Hendry and eventually conceding two goals. Despite impressive efforts, Scotland failed to score and lost 3-0, extending their goalless run. Pocognoli's team showed resilience, but the absence of goals and wins looms large for the future.
The next challenge awaits in Skopje, where Scotland will need to score goals and win to break their current slump.
