'Outfought' and 'not good enough' - Robertson on Scotland defeat
Scotland were "outfought" and simply "not good enough" in their 2-1 Nations League defeat by Slovenia, according to captain Andy Robertson.
Scotland suffered a 2-1 defeat to Slovenia in the Nations League, with captain Andy Robertson attributing the loss to being "outrun" and "not good enough". Despite winning their previous match against North Macedonia, Scotland were considered favorites to secure another victory at Hampden Park. However, Slovenia dominated defensively in the second half, scoring goals through Danijel Sturm and Aljosa Matko, turning the tide of the game.
Robertson expressed disappointment in his team's performance, stating that they failed to showcase the quality seen in their previous match. Slovenia's manager Sebastien Pocognoli agreed, acknowledging that his team lacked the necessary cleverness and strength in duels. Former Scottish midfielder Andy Halliday suggested that Pocognoli's honeymoon period as Scotland's new manager may have come to an end.
