Scotland 2 Macedonia 0. Hooray!

It was pure tense. Even-stevens in the first half. We were all over them in the second half though. The first goal was the result of about 4 serious attempts and was a really welcome relief. My camera packed in at half-time so I didn't get any cheery photos but rest assured the pub hoorayed en masse when Scott Brown scored the first goal. A header it was an all. It was magic. We stayed on top of them and McFadden scored a beautiful second. Dribbled past 5 men by my count before slotting it in. Despite being two up, Jason didn't fully relax until well into the second minute of injury time. He told me the tale of Bayern Munich and how back in the 90s they were 1 up to Man U and Man U came back with two goals in injury time. Elation became desolation in approximately 90 seconds. So it was only when the final whistle was blown that he breathed out. Now Holland on Wednesday - that's another matter.
