Gordon Strachan "incredibly proud" of Scotland win

Scotland boss Gordon Strachan reveals his delight with his side following their first win of their World Cup qualifying campaign over Croatia.

Scotland boss Gordon Strachan has revealed that he is "incredibly proud" of his side following their 1-0 win over Croatia.

Robert Snodgrass scored the only goal of the game in the first half to put a huge dent in the home side's World Cup qualifying ambitions.

Strachan told BBC Sport: "I'm incredibly proud. There's a lot of ability in there. Some of them don't get a game for their club regularly, some of them have not played for a month, but they really played well.

"They were full of heart at times and it's amazing what you can do with a group of players who play for each other."

The victory was Scotland's first win of their qualifying campaign and moves them onto five points in Group A.
