Scotland's national football team defeated Denmark, securing a direct berth in the 2026 FIFA World Cup with a 4-2 victory. Under the leadership of Steve Clarke, the team needed a win, and the crucial result was achieved in the final moments of the match.
The visitors equalized in the 82nd minute; however, Scotland regained the lead in the 93rd minute with an assist from Kieran Tierney. Then, in the 99th minute, Kenny McLean ensured Denmark's defeat with a precise shot from the midfield, leaving them no chance.
Scotland had failed to qualify for the last six World Cups. Now, the team will participate in the FIFA World Cup for the first time since 1998.
Denmark, on the other hand, will have to wait until the spring and compete in the playoff matches for qualification. The final stages of the 2026 FIFA World Cup will be held in the United States, Canada, and Mexico from June 11 to July 19.
