Coach Zlatko Dalic says sidelining of Scotland midfielder will not help underperforming Croatia in their Euro 2020 match

“Gilmour played really well against England but up to that game he was never a first-choice option and he may not have even started against us,” Dalic told a news conference on Monday. England and the Czech Republic, who meet in the group’s other match on Tuesday at Wembley, have four points apiece and a draw in that game would see both teams clinch automatic berths in the knockout stage.

“Scotland have shown their quality against England but we have to head out to the pitch as favourites. We need to be patient and not throw caution to the wind and it doesn’t matter how late we leave it as long as we win.”
