Shaun Maloney: "We certainly don't want to finish bottom"

Scotland forward Shaun Maloney has insisted that his side will be fully motivated when they face Macedonia in Skopje on Tuesday evening.

Gordon Strachan's men have no chance of qualifying for the World Cup in Brazil, but Maloney says that his side are determined to avoid finishing last in Group A.

"We certainly don't want to finish bottom and we'll be trying our hardest to win," Maloney told BBC Scotland.

"In the last few games there's been little signs of recovery and I really hope that that's the case on Tuesday."

Following last night's 2-0 defeat to Belgium, Scotland prop up Group A, sitting one point behind Wales, who have a game in hand.
