Qualifying for Euro 2024 may still be six months away but in one way it is well under way due to the impact of the Nations League.

A shadow of the team that beat Scotland in the playoffs, Ukraine provided little resistence as Scotland made it three wins from their four Nations League matches. Ukraine's hopes of providing a rare moment of levity in their war-torn nation by reaching the World Cup were eventually dashed as they lost to Wales in the play-off final. GLASGOW - Scotland boosted their bid for Nations League promotion and gained a measure of revenge over Ukraine with a 3-0 win in Glasgow on Wednesday.

The atmosphere thereafter was subdued, which was strange for a match of this magnitude. The woodwork saved the visitors after Adams met a John McGinn cross with his head. One minute of applause for the late Queen Elizabeth II, a patron of the Scottish FA, was punctured by audible booing from a section of the home support.
