Ewan Murray was at Stadion Maksimir, and his report is below. Thanks for reading this MBM, with its last word going to James Humphries: “To be fair, it looked offside to me on the replay too. Watching the game with my daughter though, and as soon as the replay came up I slumped back going ‘ah well, that’s us then’ while she was defiantly insisting it was definitely gonna stand. Innocence and experience, eh?”
Adams was clearly off, to be fair, if the VAR slide flashed up is anything to go by. But nevertheless, in summary: sigh. Scotland are still looking for their first point in Group A1, after a third game in which they’ve matched superior opponents for the most part, only to be eventually overwhelmed and delivered a sickening late blow. Pure tincture of Scotland, right there, times three. But at least we don’t have to suffer an hour-long post-mortem about it. Thank you, YouTube!
