Scott Brown calls for fast start against Gibraltar

Scotland midfielder Scott Brown has called on his side to play at a high tempo in their Euro 2016 qualifier with Gibraltar.

Gordon Strachan's side are favourites to prevail against the minnows, who have conceded 21 goals in their first four matches, but Brown wants his team to stamp their authority on the fixture in the early stages as they look to keep pace with Poland.

The 29-year-old is quoted by BBC Sport as saying: "We need to perform, we need to start well. We need to create chances like we've been doing in the last five or six games and we've got to play at the tempo we've been playing at as well.

"It's going to be difficult if they defend for the whole game. We've got to take our chances when they come. We've got to be confident on the ball, try to create chances. We've got people there that can score goals. We've got to show that we want it."

Scotland warmed up for the game at Hampden Park with a 1-0 win over Northern Ireland on Wednesday night.
