Give Scotland credit for an amazing win



The road to Russia starts with an amazing display of top of the line football and showing off its mastery in what looked like an easy affair for the Tartar Army. With a 5-1 rout over a weak Malta National squad that managed at least to put one goal for its honor.

As the World Cup, qualifiers worldwide started with a bang and many surprising results, for the Scottish National squad under Gordon Strachan, setting his goals to put his Boys in the grand fete of football as one of its paramount of wishes.

After their elimination from this past Euro 2016 competition, the man of Edinburgh is serious to deliver in what many see as a much disputed and coveted qualification.

Seeded in Group F with all favorite England, followed by Slovakia, Slovenia, Lithuania and Malta, seen as a difficult enterprise for the Scots but at the end Manager Strachan is poised to make thing happen and deliver. 

The first win is the important one regardless of the rival you may have been paired with, still the win over a modest squad that at the end could been  an upsetting draw or possibly a loss as I always state about no one being an easy foe.

After their win over Malta, the Tartars are alone in first place in-group F along with England but a goal differential separates the Scotts from the English Lions, putting Strachan lads in sole possession of first place.

Also with the way the Scots are playing, even though it was a modest squad but a win is a win, this squad positives continue in their group of play, we may have a miracle and an automatic pass into Siberian lands.

Still the road to Russia filled with many and difficult obstacles that could jeopardize the Tartars qualification as their next compromises in their group of play include in October 8 a home match in Hampden Park against Lithuania. Then the following date will be against Slovakia at Trnava and closing the year at Wembley with an almighty and difficult England.

Scotland and its Manager Gordon Strachan will have its hands full with their upcoming compromises seen as a test this this squad football and ambitions by playing altogether as a squad with an all-around spirit of unity.

That so far has put a whole squad and a nation behind them and looking forward to see their Tartan Boys deliver the ultimate of miracles in a pass into the grand ball of soccer the world is familiar with and return its lost class and top notch football.

Netting three points as a visitor was a feat like no other and a load of optimism ahead of their compromise in the qualifiers.

In a one sided match were the Scotts put on a show and seeing how the local squad saw two bookings to a couple of its top rated players in Luke Gambin and Jonathan Caruana leaving the local Falcons with just nine men.

Another plus for the Tartans was a prime time and stellar performance by Robert Snodgrass treble, surprise starter Chris Martin and Steven Fletcher respectively netting scores for the winning Scottish National squad premier performance.

The Scots welcome in unison their well-earned and fought three points of gold and for their boss Gordon Strachan right moves that gave his Boys a well-earned victory leaving Ta Qali Stadium at the end in total awe.

Hail to the Comann Ball-coise na h-Alba!
