Lewis Ferguson challenges wounded Scotland to play with ‘fire in our bellies’
Midfielder sees Northern Ireland’s visit to Hampden as the perfect opportunity to bounce back from humbling by the Netherlands
Lewis Ferguson is clear Scotland will be fuelled by anger against Northern Ireland on Tuesday after being embarrassed by the Netherlands in Amsterdam.
The 4-0 defeat at the Johan Cruyff Arena came after Scotland dominated until conceding against the run of play five minutes from the break. The visitors lost their shape and rhythm allowing the Dutch to exploit their laxity and score three goals in the last 18 minutes via Georginio Wijnaldum, Wout Weghorst and Donyell Malen.
