EURO 2020 HALF TIME: Scotland 0-1 Czech Republic. There wasn’t too much in it, but Scotland cracked after conceding a string of corners towards the end of the half. Patrik Schick’s header was a fine one, though. “Shickening,” quips Maia Harper. Below are some of the live text from what happened in the first half…
45 min +1: Christie dribbles down the left and crosses. Dykes can’t get a head on the ball. The Czechs half clear. McTominay drives with purpose down the middle, and runs slap, bang into Boril. He wants a penalty, but he’s not getting one. You’ve seen them given, but it would have been extremely soft.
Hampden roars in defiance. But that had been coming, after a series of corners and even more crosses. Great header, too.
GOAL! Scotland 0-1 Czech Republic (Schick 42)
Coufal bombs down the right on the overlap and swings it in. O’Donnell can’t close him down. Schick rises above Cooper and plants a header out of Marshall’s reach and into the bottom left.
One corner leads to another, Jankto winning this one off McTominay. He sends this one in from the left. Hanley eyebrows it clear … but then … 40 min: Some space for Masopust down the right. He wins a corner off Cooper. Darida sends a weird outswinger 40 yards back up the field, but Kral retrieves the situation and wins another corner off O’Donnell, this time out left.
A replay of that corner on 32 minutes. McGinn took a whack from distance that was easily blocked, Scotland claiming Masopust did so with his hand. The ball did hit his arm, but it was in a natural position by his body, and there was no way it was a penalty kick.
32 min: A Scotland throw from the right. It flicks off Soucek’s head to Christie, who rolls a Pele-to-Carlos-Alberto style ball out left for Robertson. The resulting rising drive isn’t quite up there with the finishing touch to the 1970 World Cup final, but it does require tipping over by Vaclik. Shame. That would have been picture-book pretty. Nothing comes of the resulting corner.
Those are the highlights of the first half. Brace yourselves for the second half details
