Scotland prepare for 'huge game' against Poland

Thursday, October 08 2015 by SNTV
  • Scotland talk on Wednesday ahead of Euro 2016 Group D visit of Poland in qualifier.

    Script: SOUNDBITE: (English) Gordon Strachan, Scotland head coach:

    (On the importance of the match against Poland):

    "It's a big one, but we put ourselves in the position to be a big one. Whether we put ourselves in this position by playing well for a lot of the tournament or put ourselves in this position by not scoring a goal against Georgia. We're here, we put ourselves in this position and it's a big game."

    SOUNDBITE: (English) Gordon Strachan, Scotland head coach:

    (On if Poland has improved since the last time the two teams played):

    "From the first game way back they are definitely a better side and we've got better as well. They've got better as they've improved as a group, but also they've got some good players back in their side from the side that played 18 months ago, but we knew that. The improvement has been terrific."

    SOUNDBITE: (English) Scott Brown, Scotland captain:

    (On Scotland's situation in qualifying):

    "We've still got two huge games to put it right and it's going to be great tomorrow to be perfectly honest. Everyone in that changing room is looking forward to the game in front of a packed 55,000 Hampden as well. It's going to be a good game and, hopefully, we can get the three points."

    SOUNDBITE: (English) Scott Brown, Scotland captain:

    (On Scotland's long sequence of unsuccessful qualifying campaigns):

    "It's been a long, long time for Scotland to get to a (successful qualifying) campaign and we can all feel it on our shoulders. It's been a huge thing in the press over the last few days as well. We're positive, we've got to go into this game as positive as we possibly can and believe in ourselves that we can do this and go the next step and get to the Euros."
