its glitter and glamour is about to continue your wanting the w news up next is sports land. with a look at scotlands returned to the top tier of world foot wall. i'm calling in berlin. i'll be back at the top of the hour with more. ah, the news tips for your bucket list, the magic corner, check personally and some great culture memorial to boot, the w travel off. we go about this issue when i arrived here, i slept with people in a room to man. it was hard. fair. i even got white hair

learning the german language helped me a lot. this case was trinity to instruct you want to know their story, the like verifying and reliable information for migrant i guess the the the the the scotland backed me since night in belgrade david marshall's penalty shooting to rulings qualified scotlands men for their 1st tournament in 23 years,

some of us it was the best we felt since kevin galico scored against austria in 1997. that schema was one of the goals that took scotland just runs $98.00. but why as a nation that used to expect to be a major tournament not been on the big stage for 23 long years. the, from the seventy's to the ninety's, scotland qualified for 67 world cups. me a site for us again, plastic against the netherlands in 1978 the scots watch their heroes score. unbelievable. gold tickets, brazil. plains new and unusual ways to snatch failure from the jaws of respectability against

brazil. again at the opening game. in france it was rod against rinaldo. scotland renewed this fierce and newly one sided, rivalry after john colon equalized to make it $11.00. the holders couldn't find a winner, so naturally gave them a helping hand with boys. drake barley school against norway on the 60, the june 1998, was the last my scotlands man and a major tournament. since then, generation has gone by i must go swim living in berlin and i'm old enough to remember at least some of all not. but not all my country in the city are told were you in scotland qualified last qualified for the major tournaments? i was 5,

i don't know if i can remember. if i've convinced myself i can remember that, but i can remember john colin's school independently against pre. so i think the 1st ones i can came to remember is the playoff name for the next 2 years. so i was called nicholas school and things going away with packing off a result and then it will not be in should and then what was, what was to come. failure to qualify. so you know, 2000 and the 2002 world cup costs manager trigg road, his job so begun scotland years of wandering in the football desert. me scotland decided to shake things up by bringing in their 1st ever foreign coach german world. cut when a bertie full time there was like that, it was that there was a lot, it was more like maybe an experimental period for the national senior

experimentation. looked paid off when mcfadden scored. the only goal of the game against the dutch in the 1st leg of the year, 2004 play off, but it's fix, know the feet and amsterdam met the monday cold. the carrier didn't get the sniff of a major championship. i think that when the conference call really not that sex, no game because it was 6, no one could have been 10 enough that i really like just this will slow the claim. after folks departure taking cost of hardy souls was charged with taking scotland back to the big walter smith decrease george barley creek, levine, thought distraction and then cliche, again. oh, tried and failed. but was that done to them or a lack of quality players? great social changes with taking place and course boys were not playing football as much as the gifted spontaneously naturally. secondly,

the introduction of foreign talent into scott from which was initiated by sickness and was taken on by the other clubs. walter smith said the boys going into the academy wasn't good enough. ex celtic in scotland, player jamie smith disagrees. i don't think it was a lack of scott on the can. all was produced. good players, like the problem is almost systematic. was called the joking rangers, right. always try to compete the treadmill clubs which like us, they were spending a lot of money sign and bag play. i was giving them bag sally's and quite honestly, the good. they excited your players and everything got a chance in 2019 come on manager. steve clark became the latest man charged with bringing back that long for success. the laid back air sherman had a rocky start, but he galvanized auditorium, late,

brittle group of players to take them to glory in belgrade to i really rates the cost as a manager. i think what i'd recommend was like on believable that they were all john smith and they will not close up her watch and confess them. and then he takes over and ends up taking this commandment team. what normally stars like at all and get something to europe. steve clark is basically from all i can see about a defense of madison structured manager. he was the same with kamala scott and i think a better differentially and then the being fatal. and so, but he's been able to organize them humiliating for neil defeat and russia in late 2019 press, the turning point for clark. he asked his players to carry their heart with them and the 1000000 much unbeaten run. so they qualify for euro 2020. what's been the

differences led us to qualify some really town. it's a crop of talent not seed in scotland for a generation. there's the robert center champions, league winner with liverpool, manchester, united pover, house gotten terminate. arsenals marauding left back here and tyranny and aston villa. go scoring midfielder join me again. and if you've got clothes, you can bring in the claim for liverpool and acid villa manchester. lately, with germany, so you know, you're good quality someplace it, but i think it's just that we do actually have the best group of players that will hudson name it probably. i mean, if you look to the managers of hot century law school sites, like would people say and gotten stuck in as a monitor? like probably not to explain. christie show that the players cared about giving the country something to celebrate. amid the corona virus pandemic,

it's been audible here for you. i hope everyone has the socially distance talk to you and begun wherever scott's were in the world. in glasgow to berlin, where i've spent the past 9 years here, the chill of the cold war is never far away. the mid communist, due to statues, there's plenty of scottish to be found even if it's not always flattering. scotlands reputation for parsimony is reflected in the names of its best shot races and it's in the street signs in the cities, english quarter white glasgow street in english port. and it's also to be

found in the city scottish exiles during the ton. demik has been painting for the place they call caledonia with the think. i don't know me. 100 park law school to scotlands. 3 great games are to be played at the national stadium. it means the talk to armies invasion of europe will have to wait. at least a little while he always thought would make that really nice summer and france or nate or state. it's just going to be quite, we'll have to separate the fact that over play in a major national for he knows game. but we're still in classical, awaiting scotland at tons and talk of the check public featuring labor crews and strike a public chick and croatia with real madrid plea make

a look which is also a trip down the road to wednesday to meet hurricane england. scotland . ve england, it's the world's oldest international fixture. it's a little the fact that we told the english how to play the game. it might be hard to believe for people who have actually watch scotland, but we invented classic football. but can't go and teach england another lesson in the euros after all, they haven't beaten the so called old enemy since dawn hutchison scored at wembley in 1999. england can be very good, but they can be brought with us, go to split it and being the underdogs were you into that game might be a benefit to us. as we go in. the euro's lose again to check the public was against croatia, but be england and get not the foster. i would probably take a successful tournament. you know,

it's the anglo gym. we can beat them to drink and we can beat them. infamously scotland have never gone beyond the group stage that the major tournaments defeats the costa rica in 1990 is just one entry in a catalogue of disaster me number 123, like i said to you on. but can this increasingly confident, young squad, but the trend by reaching the last 16 so many thought placed in ideally set up for us to completely blow to be one of the one of those sub place teams. is not going to look at what we should be. we should be good or not. i think we've got the squad to surprise some people. well, i think we've done. we've got the potential for with 2 of those group games to be played at handed park. scotland will be backed by home funds aking for

a chance to see life football after the panoramic weather scotland do scotland or do the unthinkable and qualify for the last 16 it sure to be some atmosphere, whatever they do, these young players have shown that scotland can play the game, written their own chapter in the countries in during football romance last year now, and this should be stream it with me more in in in good shape.
