00:00Alan Patullo here, Scotsman football writer, just in the interview room in the bowels of
00:10Estadio de Luz where Scotland have fallen to a late winner from guess who, Ronaldo stepped
00:20off the bench to score with two minutes left to complete another heartbreaking evening
00:27for Scotland who aren't finding life easy in the top flight of the Nations League as we
00:33possibly would have expected but Steve Clarke has stressed tonight in this very chair behind me,
00:41he stressed to the players that they shouldn't feel too down about these last two performances
00:48which obviously have yielded nothing away of points but he says has earned them some form
00:56of redemption I think following those Euro 2024 performances which are so disappointing.
01:01I've just filed some Steve Clarke quotes on Scotsman.com, read that on there and I've also
01:08got a match report up there as well and log on tomorrow for a follow-up on Scotsman.com as well.
01:16I'm signing off here from the Estadio de Luz, my first visit here, it's been a it's quite an
01:21impressive stadium but yeah not quite as traumatic as the last time Scotland were here
01:28when they lost 5-0 in 1993 but it's yeah been a painful evening nevertheless.
