"It was a tough night. We kept prodding, doing what we wanted to do. The message was just to stay patient and we managed to do that. It's a good start, a solid start. Four points will never qualify you for anything. It's nice to go home with a smile on your face, but I'm already thinking about next month."
"Billy [Gilmour] and Ben [Gannon-Doak] are two players who excite the public. My job is to pick a team to win the game. Clean sheets are what we have to build our campaign on. Job done. That's the best way to describe it. We knew they would try to be a bit more secure and defensive. We just had to be patient and got the goal at the perfect time just before half-time. We could have had more, but a job well done."
Scotland defeated Belarus 2-0 in World Cup qualifying and remain unbeaten after two matches. Che Adams scored an instinctive opener, his 10th international goal, and a second-half own goal secured the victory. Scotland dominated the game, maintaining patient pressure to break down a defensive Belarus side. The result leaves Scotland just behind Denmark on goal difference with two home fixtures upcoming. Clean sheets are emphasized as the foundation for the campaign. Two younger midfielders generated excitement among supporters while the squad remains cautiously focused on the next qualifier.
