Scotland will not want to repeat their 2020 Euro performance

Held in 2021 due to the pandemic, the Euro 2020 marked Scotland’s first appearance in the tournament since 1996. Similar to the celebrations now, fans were delighted to finally watch their team play against the elite nations of Europe. However, their campaign ended quite early than the fans expected.

Scotland lost their first game of the tournament against Czechia, thanks to a brace by Patrik Schick. Then a draw against eventual finalist and long-time rivals, England gave fans some hope as a win in the next game would secure them a spot in the Round of 16.

However, it all came to nothing as Croatia dominated the Scottish players running out 3-1 winners, not only eliminating the country from the tournament but also ensuring they finished dead last in the group. Now, making their fourth appearance, the nation from the UK will look to improve on their poor campaigns of the past.
