I haven't seen either of my Scotland goals go in - Wolves defender Berra

Christophe Berra last night scored his second goal for Scotland but it was the second time he was unable to see the ball hit the back of the net.

The Wolves defender added to his header against Wales nine months ago when he nodded home in the 39th minute of the 1-1 draw with Slovenia and although he was delighted to again score, he was disappointed that he did not actually see the whole occur as he was busy landing in a heap of players.

"For over three years, I hadn't scored a goal in a competitive match, so to get two in less than 12 months for Scotland makes me really proud," Berra said.

"I said to Charlie Adam beforehand to dink it up into the air because it makes it easier for us to attack it.

"I was lucky to get it as I thought Gary Caldwell was going to get there first, but it was great from my point of view. "For both of my Scotland goals now, I have been stretching and I haven't actually seen them go in."
