'The pressure isn't on us' - Cumings confident for Finland trip

Scotland goalkeeper Eartha Cumings says the pressure is off Pedro Martinez Losa's side when they travel to Finland on Tuesday.

The Scots were held to a goalless draw at Easter Road in the first leg of their Euro 2025 play-off against Marko Saloranta's side.

Next week they travel to Helsinki for the second leg - the winner of which will book their place in next year's finals in Switzerland.

"It was a tough night but I think we feel pretty confident in ourselves defensively," Cumings told BBC Scotland.

"I didn’t feel massively pressured, I obviously wanted to keep a clean sheet but sometimes there’s nothing you can do about it.

"I think I can be a bit of a whinger at the back but I couldn’t do what they do.

"Tonight wasn’t a bad result, the tie is still in the balance. We’ve just got to go away from home and play our best, the pressure isn’t on us."
