Adams and Robertson Say Boos Were Justified After Scotland’s Unconvincing 2-1 Win Over Belarus

Senior figures urge a sharper display next month to keep automatic World Cup qualification on track.

Overview

  • A section of the Hampden crowd booed at full time despite the victory, with head coach Steve Clarke describing the performance as disappointing.
  • Che Adams said supporters were right to voice frustration, citing poor decision-making, lapses in concentration and disjointed pressing.
  • Andy Robertson accepted the reaction, calling the display below standard and stressing the need to be better with and without the ball.
  • Belarus registered heavy pressure with 22 attempts, underlining defensive frailties as Scotland held on late for the points.
  • Scotland sit on 10 points and players note that a draw in Athens followed by a home win over Denmark would secure a first World Cup appearance since 1998.
