'Alex McLeish has to go' Scotland fans react to embarrassing defeat

Scotland fans were calling for Alex McLeish to quit after an embarrassing 3-0 loss to Kazakhstan.

It was the worst possible start for Scotland, as they were comfortably outplayed by the hosts at the Astana Stadium in their opening Euro 2020 qualifying campaign match.

After a disastrous opening 10 minutes for the visitors, they found themselves 2-0 down thanks to poor defending, with Yuriy Pertsukh and Yan Vorogovskiy finding the net.

The game didn't improve for the Tartan Army supporters in the second half, Bakityar Zaynutidinov made it three for the hosts just six minutes after the break.

Supporters were quick to vent their frustration on social media, and many reckoned it was time up for McLeish and his time in charge of the national side.

And some more fans saw the funny side of it, creating several memes after the defeat.
