Clarke 'pointing the way' for World Cup qualification

Willie Miller thinks Steve Clarke is "pointing the way" for World Cup qualification.

Scotland started their Nations League campaign with defeats to Poland and Portugal, conceding late goals that condemned his side to two losses.

"On the night I think Scotland showed a lot of quality that Steve Clarke will be more than happy with," the former Aberdeen striker told BBC Scotland's Sportsound.

"We know he won't be happy with the result but from the last two games he can be pleased with how they've performed as a team against top quality opposition.

"The goal was well worked and magnificently taken by a player who's been growing in stature with every game and carries a goal threat.

"Clarke is definitely on the right track, he's pointing the way towards World Cup qualification."
