After bringing back a 1-0 win from Piraeus in the first leg of their Nations League playoff, the Scots were comfortably beaten 3-0 in Mount Florida to relegate Steve Clarke's side from League A.

Scotland and Greece were drawn in Group C for the World Cup qualifiers and after beating Belarus 2-0 in Hungary on Monday night, the Scots have four points from their opening two qualifiers ahead of the October visits of Greece and Belarus.
