BBC Sport reported that Andy Robertson said Scotland were “outfought” and “not good enough” after a 2-1 Nations League defeat by Slovenia at Hampden Park. Scotland had led at half-time through Ryan Christie’s close-range backheel, but Slovenia turned the game around with second-half goals from Danijel Sturm and Aljosa Matko.

Robertson said Scotland failed to repeat the level shown in their win over North Macedonia on Saturday, while coach Sebastien Pocognoli also accepted his side were below the standard needed. The result means Scotland’s strong start under Pocognoli has taken another hit, with the report also noting criticism that the team were opened up repeatedly by Slovenia’s movement in behind.
