It is not difficult. You have possibly omitted a setting somewhere along the work-flow.
I have to confess, I have never user the crop tool with the scaling into the crop size as an objective (live and learn)
The things to look out for:
Crop - toolbox, Make sure that "Delete cropped pixels" is OFF
Draw the crop and adjust to required size in the toolbox. Click in the crop area to finish it.
Go to the View Menu and enable "Show-All" This lets you see what is cropped.
Use the Scale tool to resize to suit.
Back to the View menu, turn off "Show-All" then tidy up using Layer -> Layer to Image Size
40 second demo of that, so do not blink: https://i.imgur.com/jxX3f1i.mp4
