Scotland‘s hopes of reaching the knockout rounds of a major international tournament were once again squandered last night in heartbreaking fashion after a 100th minute winner saw them slump out of Euro 2024 at the hands of Hungary.
Despite holding 58% of possession and arguably being denied a penalty while the scores were still level, a toothless Scottish side mustered only four shots in the entirety of the must-win fixture, with none of those forcing Péter Gulácsi into a save.
The wait therefore continues for hopeful fans, who will be quick to move on to the upcoming 2026 World Cup, but when does the qualification campaign begin?
