"We just didn't start well enough. Steve Clarke went for it in the end but maybe it was too late, the damage was done in the first five minutes."
Ange Postecoglou on STV
"Morocco did look a little bit ragged towards the end.
"If you go back to the start Scotland will be kicking themselves that they conceded so early."
Willie Miller on BBC Sportsound
"It's that resilience, that never-say-die attitude from Scotland, the team belief. It didn't matter how much they were battered in the first half, they didn't lose that.
"They didn't create too many opportunities, had a couple of little penalty shouts. Scotland had control of the game, but it's difficult to assess how much Morocco took their foot of the gas. But by the look of them, they got a fair scare."
Leanne Crichton on BBC Sportsound
"A mixed bag. The first half, we were shell-shocked. The game plan, everything they'd have spoken about, goes in 90 seconds.
"We weathered the storm and tactically we adjusted. Once we did that, we gained a bit of confidence and got closer to the Moroccans.
"Scotland can take a lot of positives from the way they galvanised themselves."
Ally McCoist on STV
"It was a much better second half. Disastrous start, I thought we lacked a little bit of confidence and belief but in the second half we were much better.
"Scotland could have, and should have, had a penalty but in the grand scheme of things, it's a 1-0 defeat against a team that were in the semi-finals of the last tournament. We live to fight another day."
Pat Nevin on BBC Sportsound
"They can be proud of themselves, particularly in that second half. In the first quarter, they were second best by a country mile. However, they got back into the game.
"It was a pretty even game second half, two teams with not a lot between them.
"By the end, Scotland were the better side. They were pushing, we saw the resilience we knew they had, the physicality they've got. They had half chances, got into good areas. They just needed the break of the ball."
