You are Scotland boss Steve Clarke what would you do?
"Steve Clarke's Scotland surprised many on Friday by bringing home a thoroughly merited point from Denmark to kick start their World Cup qualifying campaign. After a rocky first 15 minutes where they struggled to string together a pass, the Scots grew into the game and could have ended up taking a landmark victory. Instead, it's on to Belarus on Monday in Hungary, with Scotland's opponents still smarting after a 5-1 demolition at the hands of Greece."
"While there were so many unknowns before Scotland's opener in Copenhagen, it's a completely different story after it. There were so many solid performers all the way through the team, from Angus Gunn, to Grant Hanley, Aaron Hickey, John McGinn and more. However, Scotland's 4-4-2 formation did a different job on the Danes than is required against Belarus. While the Scots could have nicked it, the main job was to stay compact, narrow and frustrate while hitting on the break."
Scotland earned a deserved point in Copenhagen against Denmark after recovering from a rocky first 15 minutes. Several players delivered strong performances, notably Angus Gunn, Grant Hanley, Aaron Hickey and John McGinn. Scotland used a 4-4-2 that troubled Denmark but would need a different approach against Belarus, prioritising compactness, narrowness and counterattacks. Clarke is expected to rotate players due to fatigue and limited recent minutes for many squad members. Angus Gunn commanded his box and kept a clean sheet. The back four performed well and should remain largely intact if all are fit. A win in Hungary is essential.
