So, Scotland lose to Costa Rica in Alex McLeish's first game in his second spell in charge of the national side.

It's the same result as when the sides met at Italia 90. We'll have more reaction and highlights at our website later.

Thanks for your company, good night.

"It was a good exercise," says Scotland's Matt Ritchie. "Obviously, a new squad, a new manager and new ideas. You could see from the first half that to the second half, it was much improved.

"I think that was down to the lads getting to know one another. It was a good night but obviously not the result we were hoping for. We created some good chances in the second half and hopefully we can continue to improve and be ready for the qualifiers."

I think Alex McLeish will give more players an opportunity in the Hungary game and have a good look at them. He's got every right - if these guys don't step up to the plate and don't take the opportunity, then bin them. It's as simple as that.

Scotland head coach Alex McLeish: "We were never really up on them the way we wanted to be, high on the back three and make the goalie kick.

"Maybe a bit of apprehension, some new caps in the team. We've got five guys on the pitch who haven't played for Scotland before and that's a plus.

"The next step is, can they maintain and stay in the set-up? Getting a wee taste of that hopefully would've whetted their appetite.

"Second half was better - much more tempo, much more urgency. Just a little bit laboured in the first half.

"There's some young kids that we're still going to look at. It's an ongoing process, it's not going to be overnight.

"You could see they're a well-drilled side, they've played together for a long time."

Speaking after the match, Scotland skipper Charlie Mulgrew said: “It’s been a good week, it’s been different.

“It’s difficult when it’s a friendly but it’s up to us to create that atmosphere. In the first half we didn’t press as a team and didn’t sit off as a team, and that’s where we got most of our problems.

“We sorted that at half-time and [there were] definitely encouraging signs.

“The message was nice and clear at half time, get up higher, get pressing. You saw that in the second half, they never had much and we dominated."

Thefootballblether: Defeat for Scotland in Alex McLeish's first game back. Disappointing but got to search for green shoots of hope. Robertson head and shoulders above rest, get one of the strikers re-familiarised with a barn door and could be promising.

Michael Griffin: I thought the Scotland team that finished the game was much stronger than that which started. A lot more zip and energy.

Craig Currie: Was that positive or not? Unsure some decent showings but formation needs work.

Emz Adam: Well, that was appalling Scotland.

Alan P: Scotland: are you Hungary for more?

Lindyloo: Andrew Robertson is world-class.

"It was better in the second half and we showed more appetite, but I didn't think it could get any worse. Let's put it that way.

"We sat off them in the first half and allowed them to dictate play and our possession was very poor. We created hardly any opportunities; the second half was much better and the substitutions helped as well.

"It's difficult to judge because Costa Rica just settled for it in the second half, didn't they?"

There were notable boos at full time which suggest not many onlookers saw too much to get excited about tonight.

Costa Rica were far too comfortable in the first half and although Scotland showed more intent thereafter, it wasn't entirely inspiring.

Oli McBurnie, Scott McTominay and Scott McKenna have not done their chances much harm but for a first match in charge and talk of building excitement and belief, this side simply did not deliver.

A better showing is required against Hungary.

Derek Brown: This is poor. Get the feeling that Costa Rica could score more if they wanted to.

Graeme: Terrible Scotland performance tonight. Terrible team selection. Big Eck has his work cut out!

Three minutes of added time at Hampden.

Will that prove to be Scotland's best chance to restore parity?

Scotland’s second half performance has improved but not enough to suggest many players have impressed.

Matt Ritchie did have a great opportunity moments ago as did Robertson but there has not been enough threat, not enough to get supporters overly engaged in the action.

One thing Alex McLeish would have wished for would have been moments to build confidence, moments to give a sense that momentum can be built over the coming fixtures.

It hasn’t emerged leaving a rather flat feeling around the stadium.

Another Scotland chance is lost. Andrew Robertson, the hosts' most impressive player on show, sends a low cross into the box but Oli McBurnie can't connect from six yards out.

Scotland come alive as substitute Callum McGregor threads a superb ball through to Matt Ritchie, whose fierce drive is parried high into the air by Keylor Navas... and drops onto the roof of the net.

"Good play from Scotland and a real opportunity," says BBC Sportsound's Willie Miller.

Alex McLeish's side trail by that early Marco Urena strike and are stepping up their efforts to restore parity but they've lacked a cutting edge in front of goal.

Half an hour remaining at Hampden.
