Scotland's women's football team faced significant challenges before their match against the Netherlands, including travel disruptions that delayed their arrival. However, under the direction of new coach Melissa Andreatta, the team demonstrated resilience and commitment, leaving a positive impression despite their previous string of defeats. Central to their performance was midfielder Kirsty MacLean, who marked her significance in the team's offense. The players, including captain Caroline Weir, contributed to an energetic and competitive match, reflecting a potential turnaround for the team even in unfavorable circumstances.
If you rocked up to the stadium having not heard of their issues you would be forgiven for thinking everything was routinely done pre-match. There was no hint of using it as an excuse or branding it an exceptional circumstance, instead it was an opportunity to impress.
Paramount to that was Rangers midfielder Kirsty MacLean, who was pulling the strings. For long enough, Scotland have sought after a deep-lying midfielder to complement the attacking capabilities of Erin Cuthbert and Caroline Weir.
