Despite qualifying for the last two European Championships, World Cup qualification has proved out of reach for Scotland since France 1998.
Yet the Scottish side beat a 10-man Danish side 4-2 in a winner-takes-all match in Group C, with Scott McTominay scoring with a bicycle kick just three minutes into the match, sending Scotland’s supporters at Hampden Park into raptures.
The early cheers of the Scottish fans were dampened when Denmark’s Rasmus Hojlund levelled the score.
Scotland’s Lawrence Shankland then put the home team ahead again, but that too was equalised by Patrick Dorgu in the 82nd minute.
