Gordon Strachan: 'Scotland don't fear Germany'

By , Senior Reporter
Scotland manager Gordon Strachan insists that his side are "really looking forward" to taking on Germany in their opening Euro 2016 qualifying match this weekend.

Gordon Strachan has insisted that Scotland will head to Germany with "no fear" as they kick off their Euro 2016 qualification campaign.

Die Mannschaft lifted the World Cup in July following victory over Argentina, but they suffered a 4-2 defeat against the same opposition in Dusseldorf last night.

"I'm really looking forward to the challenge because I can see the players are," Strachan told reporters. "I'm encouraged by that, there's no fear whatsoever in the camp.

"There's a reality obviously that we're playing the world champions but there's no fear and I like that."

Scotland are in qualifying Group D alongside Republic of Ireland, Georgia, Gibraltar, Poland and Germany.
