Steve Clarke told his Scotland heroes they will be talked about for YEARS to come after they produced an epic Hampden night for the ages with a victory over former world champions Spain to storm to the top of Euro 2024 qualifying Group A.
Scott McTominay bagged a double against the shellshocked Spaniards and it was Scotland’s first victory over a nation regarded as one of world football’s superpowers for almost 40 years - the last coming in 1984 when Kenny Dalglish famously scored in a Euro qualifier.
Clarke was at that game with Mo Johnston also bagging a double and the national team boss admitted he fired his stars up by telling them a victory would see them talked about in the same way as legendary Dalglish and Co. The Ayrshireman said: “That’s what we’re trying to build. I spoke about it before the game, going back to when Kenny scored the third goal in ‘84.
