The Scotland team during Euro 2024
For its fourth participation in the Euro, Scotland hopes to finally progress beyond the group stage, a feat which eluded them during their previous appearances in 1992, 1996 and 2020. Placed in Group A, the team led by Steve Clarke, in office since 2019, is preparing to face formidable opponents: Germany, Switzerland and Hungary.
The Scottish selection displays a solid and experienced squad. Goalkeepers Zander Clark and Craig Gordon, both from Heart of Midlothian FC, will be supported by Angus Gunn from Norwich City and Liam Kelly from Motherwell FC. In defense, key players like Liverpool’s Andy Robertson and Real Sociedad’s Kieran Tierney will bring international experience. The midfield, featuring the likes of Manchester United’s Scott McTominay and Aston Villa’s John McGinn, offers a blend of toughness and creativity. The attack, led by Southampton’s Ché Adams and Heart of Midlothian’s Lawrence Shankland, will attempt to break through the opposition’s defences.
Qualified by finishing second in their group behind Spain and ahead of Norway, Georgia and Cyprus, Scotland will play their first match against Germany in Munich on June 14. She will then face Switzerland in Cologne on June 19 at 9 p.m. and, finally, Hungary, in Stuttgart, on June 23 at 9 p.m.
