Croatia's Stimac: Strachan the right man for Scotland job

Croatia boss Igor Stimac insists Gordon Strachan is the right man for the Scotland job.

Stimac saw his side lose 2-0 to Strachan's Scots in World Cup qualifying on Tuesday night which re-iterated his suggestions that the former Southampton and Celtic boss is well-placed in his role.

"I told you yesterday that Gordon is the right man and he will improve it that much that you will be proud of it once again," he said.

"I can only wish Mr Strachan all the luck."

The victory at Hampden Park was Scotland's first at home this qualifying campaign and allowed them to finish fourth on the Group A table.
