Scotland v Israel - still a "last chance saloon" for Ecky!?
#3
FT 3-2 and the same Scotland team delivers a winning result with in form James Forrest scoring again but this time he has "banged in" a "hat trick" of goals! Great stuff! Thumb up The last Scotland player to score a consecutive 2 and 3 goal "haul" was Denis Law in 1963 and the last Celtic player to score such a Scotland "hat trick" was Jimmy Quinn in 1908. The only disappointment was losing that 2nd Israeli goal when we were "coasting" at 3-1 and looking to add a 4th goal in a decent performance when the guys kept cool after losing an early "wonder goal" by Kayal. Still, job done and we have a Euro play off spot available if we need it! However, we now go in to pot 3 in the upcoming full Euro quali draw and that should give us an easier quali group to compete in later on. Time for a rest and Ecky can concentrate on assessing other poss Scottish players who can slot in to his preferred team set up and evolve a better young Scotland team/squad for future challenges.
