Scotland stun Norway with comeback for the ages as diehards can taste Euro 2024 qualification – 5 talking points

Scotland produced a stunning turnaround to take full control of Euro 2024 qualifying Group A and leave Norway and Erling Haaland facing the prospect of watching on the couch.

The Man City star's penalty after a soft award looked like getting Stale Solbakken's side back into the hunt for qualification against a Scotland team that had struggled to cause many problems. But a late double salvo left the Scandinavian's spewing and the Scots' 100 per cent record intact thanks to Lyndon Dykes and Kenny McLean off the bench, whose goals secured one of our most important, if scarcely deserved victories that could see us making the journey to Germany.

Norway spurned a big chance after 12 minutes. Fortunately for Scotland, Alexander Sorloth's was on the end of an early cross rather than his strike partner, and his header was straight at Angus Gunn, who's 100 per cent clean sheet record for his country remained in tact when it really should have been ended.
