Decent, if mostly defensive display against a better team than us. Can't say I thought we deserved more than we got from the game. More 'could of' than 'should of' (Poland).

My main takeaway from Portugal is a reinforcement of the idea that Scotland simply aren't capable of competing consistently at pot-1 level. No shame in that. Not sure there's a formula to bridge that gap.

We can make it difficult, but it's like the Old Firm against the rest in Scotland: We need to play well, get the breaks and hope they're off their game to get a result. Our chance of getting a good result depends more on them than us.

For the qualifiers, I think the general defensive approach taken in this game will be taken and should be taken in games against similar opposition.

There is shame in not being able to consistently compete at Pot 1 level , We could have in the past 

We do not have enough skilful players
