Battling Scots narrowly beaten by Germany

07 September 2014 21:01

Scotland put up a spirited show in their first Euro 2016 qualifying match, going down 2-1 to world champions Germany.

Thomas Muller gave the hosts a first half lead in Dortmund, only for Ikechi Anya to level midway through the second half.

However, Gordon Strachan's men were undone by Muller's second goal of the night four minutes later - before Charlie Mulgrew was dismissed in the closing stages when he kicked the ball away and received a second yellow card.
