Scotland defeat Iceland, wish I’d seen it

Thank goodness. A victorious result at Hampden.

Scotland are hopefully back on the route to qualification. Despite the controversial exclusion of Barry Ferguson and Allan McGregor, the Scotland squad saw fit to defeat Iceland 2-1. While the Rangers duo were relegatged to the bench, both Ross McCormack and Steven Fletcher scored their first goals for Scotland to ensure a victory over the Icelandic visitors. I just wish I’d seen it.

Again, due to some regional, cable-related bonkerness Scotland games don’t appear to merit showing on TV in the USA. As before, we had to follow the game on the internet. As much as I appreiciated the score it would have been so much better to see the Scotland squad in action. And I wouldn’t have had to spend the day in a museum:(

Minor disappointments aside, am glad we’re back on winning form and hope we see more of the same.
