Scotland, Austria, Spain, Switzerland and Belgium are the last direct European travelers to the World Cup after a turbulent qualifying night that took place tonight from Glasgow to Pristina.
The biggest was seen in Glasgow, at the “Hampden Park” stadium, at the end of the moments that make football so popular and loved - with goals in the 93rd and 99th minutes, the legendary “tartan army” defeated Denmark 4:2 and qualified for the World Cup for the first time since 1998.
What anthological scenes in the iconic arena, what a celebration in stoppage time, especially after Meklin's goal in the ninth minute of stoppage time, from his own half!
The Scots are playing the bagpipes - the Danes are left with playoff hell.
"Perhaps the greatest night in the history of Scottish football," writes the BBC.
Scotland, along with England, is the oldest football nation in the world, founded in 1872 - that's how long that history has been going on.
An incredible game, the Danes lost twice after goals from McTominay and Shankland, came back twice through Hoylund (penalty) and Dorgu, the second time in the 81st minute with a player less, they needed a point for first place and direct promotion, but they couldn't hold on in injury time with ten men.
The goal for 3:2 and the Scots' indescribable celebration was scored by Tirni in the 93rd minute.
Scotland used to be a regular participant in the World Cups - 1974, 78, 82, 86, 90, then 1998 - and then history stopped.
Now it is being written again, led by the coach, Steve Clarke.
