[ UEFA Euro 2024 Scotland ] Participated in eight World Cup finals. From 1974 to 1990, he was shortlisted for 5 consecutive times.

Scotland have participated in eight World Cup finals. From 1974 to 1990, he was shortlisted for 5 consecutive times. But it is famous for never exiting the group stages. Both times in 1974 and 1978 were due to goal difference disadvantage. They were not as good as Brazil and the Netherlands respectively, and missed the promotion.

The 1998 World Cup was the last time the team participated in the World Cup finals. Unfortunately, it ended up in the group stage.


Their formation will be similar to the Dutch "Total Football" 3-4-3 tactics. In terms of goalkeeper, Gunn will be the main player from Norwich City. He will be responsible for guarding the goal and delivering long balls to the forward line.


In the defense, Tierney from Real Sociedad served as the left center back, but his performance did not meet the club's expectations. Watford native Porter Tiger is likely to take up the right-center-back position after an impressive season. Hanley, who comes from Norwich City, will command the backline as a centre-back.


In the midfield, Robertson from Liverpool will serve as left back. He was known for his stamina and tireless running down the left wing. Armstrong, who comes from Brentford, will play at right back. His attributes are similar to Robertson, but his crossing ability is slightly worse.


In the midfield, McTominay from Manchester United will partner with McGregor from Celtic. McTominay will focus on defense and interception, while McGregor will be responsible for attack organization.


On the forward line, McGinn from Aston Villa will start on the right wing due to his speed, while Christie from Bournemouth will start on the left wing. Gilmour, who hails from Rangers, will lead the line as a striker and despite not scoring many goals, is known for his ability to create space for his teammates.


Head coach Steve Clark leads Scotland to their fourth European Championship appearance. They aim to reach the knockout stages for the first time. Clark won more than half of his 51 European Championship games as coach. Expectations are high for improvements this summer.
