WELL there you are! Hungary deserved to win. They were the better team.
Why? Well... a huge reason is that Hungary has the advantages and resources of being a normal country.
Scotland isn’t a normal country, and until it decides to take its future into its own hands, it will always suffer the disappointments and disadvantages not being normal.

EVEN if Hungary hadn’t got their goal, Scotland would not have deserved to go through. This was nowhere close to the usual glorious failure, it was nothing less than inglorious failure. Even the two goals in their favour were assisted by Germany and Switzerland.

IF we got the penalty and scored it I would have been ecstatic, but what then, Steve? we were woeful, the worst team in the tournament.

Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
Callum Baird, Editor of The National
