Poland 2 Scotland 2: Scots escape Warsaw with a point
ByThe Courier Reporter
Scotland had to settle for a European Championship qualifying point in Warsaw after coming from behind to threaten a famous win against a Poland side fresh from victory over world champions Germany.
The Poles looked set to build on their historic triumph over their neighbours when Krzysztof Maczynski fired them into an 11th-minute lead following a mistake by Alan Hutton.
But Shaun Maloney finished off an excellent move seven minutes later and Scotland took a second-half lead when Steven Naismith flicked home James Morrison’s long free-kick.
However, Arkadiusz Milik atoned for some earlier misses when he fired home with 14 minutes left after Hutton was caught out again.
