Scotland Draws Against Portugal, Avoids Fifth Loss

Scotland held Portugal to a 0-0 draw at Hampden Park, marking their first point in the top tier of the Nations League and avoiding a fifth straight competitive loss. Craig Gordon's exceptional saves were pivotal, including a late effort to deny Bruno Fernandes, while Cristiano Ronaldo, in his 200th start, failed to score and left the pitch visibly frustrated. Former Scotland goalkeeper David Marshall viewed the result as a positive step for Steve Clarke's team against strong opposition. Despite missing several key players, Scotland managed to hold off Portugal, who have yet to secure their place in the quarter-finals. The draw leaves Scotland at risk of relegation from League A, trailing Poland by three points with two games remaining.
