Scotland 2-1 North Macedonia: What Pocognoli said

"It's important for the lads because, as I said before the game, we knew that they worked very hard this week to produce and to try to apply the game plan and all the situations that we worked on in training.

"So, on a positive note, yeah, we controlled the game, we created a number of chances, we were quite brave with the defensive line, we created chances for pressing and mistakes from the opponent.

"So, yeah, it's a process and credit to the lads that they tried to execute it as best as possible. We followed the instructions and, yeah, on the critical way, we should have finished the game earlier, like in Slovenia away, and probably in North Macedonia we should have scored two or three goals more.

"And today is the same, so, that's the critical aspect of the game and we didn't keep the clean sheet, which I think we deserved because we were brave off the ball.

"And, yeah, I feel that after the first goal, we dropped in terms of concentration and it is also something that we need to learn.

"But, overall, I'm happy with the performance.

"We see also some interesting moments from Luke Graham at the back of the defence, with Kieran Tierney and Ryan Porteous.

"It's also something that we can take, and some good movement with the box in the midfield.

"So, I'm happy."
