‘Immense Doak a Scotland revelation’ – your views on late win over Croatia

We asked for your views on Scotland’s dramatic win over 10-man Croatia.

Here’s what some of you had to say:

David: The team looked refreshed and energised, we have needed a player who can take a defender on and scruff up the opposition’s tactics instead of square passing, Ben Doak is that man. The team played good, with shooting boots on and better decision making it could have been more. On to Warsaw for the win.

Kenny: Doak, Andy Robertson and Craig Gordon. On fire. Yes a bit of the rub of the green, but why not. First half was bad. Playing very wide. Hesitant on the ball. Nervous. Red card. Well lady luck. Second half was measured, controlled, but nervy on the terrace. John McGinn and Ryan Gauld made the team stronger. I believe.

Arran: Worst performance of this campaign yet we get the win we needed. With Robert Lewandowski missing, Poland are there for the taking and if Portugal can do us a favour we could end up finishing second and get pot one for the World Cup qualifiers. Massive opportunity for Steve Clarke and the boys. Let’s go!

Ryan: Credit where credit is due, I think John Souttar has come in and been a level up in the centre-back position. Real unsung hero in the past three games.

Kieran: Really impressed with how Doak performed over the last three or four matches in a Scotland jersey. Boy has a bright future. I thought the overall game was touch and go at times, but never write Scotland off. Glad we managed to get the three points. On to Monday.

Jim: Smashing result, young Doak is a revelation. McGinn again shows his worth. Nevertheless not our best display yet a win was what the team and the fans needed. Somehow the future looks better now.

George: The win did little to alter my opinion that Scotland has too few top international class players. Doak and Souttar were immense and McGinn brightened up proceedings as a sub. Tommy Conway must have wondered what he had joined up to.

Thomas: Clarke needs to blood more youth into the team and stop this ‘protecting young players’ nonsense. Give them the chance, the freedom and their raw talent may shine like Doak’s did.
