Gordon Strachan’s first World Cup Qualifying game as manager of Scotland ended in defeat as Scotland were beaten 2-1 by Chris Coleman’s Wales 1-1 in their World Cup Qualifying game at Hampden Park. 

Former Sky Blue loanee Gary Caldwell played for Scotland and Craig Bellamy played for Wales who equalised through a 73rd minute Arron Ramsey penalty after Grant Hanley had given Scotland a first half stoppage time. Robson Kanu then gave Wales the win a minute later before Ramsey was sent off.
