Scotland qualify for 2026 World Cup

Former Scotland international Pat Nevin and ex-Scotland captain Rachel Corsie join Steve Crossman and commentator Eilidh Barbour from Hampden as Scotland secure a first World Cup spot for 28 years. The team react to an epic night of football in Glasgow that finished 4-2 and had it all:  6 goals, a red card, a penalty, a stoppage time winner and a final-kick-of-the-game goal. Hear from Steve Clarke, the first Scotland manager to get the national team to three consecutive major tournaments, as well as from captain Andy Robertson and goalscorers Kieran Tierney and Kenny McLean. There's also an interview with midfielder John McGinn. Elsewhere, Wales thrashed North Macedonia 7-1 to earn themselves a home advantage in next year's World Cup play-off semi-final. Craig Bellamy tells us he had an eye on the Scotland game too, though. Timecodes: 0'15 Full-time whistle 8'51 Steve Clarke 16'00 Kieran Tierney and Kenny McLean 27'39 Andy Robertson 37'25 John McGinn 45'02 Craig Bellamy5 Live/ BBC Sounds commentaries this week:Wednesday 19th November WOMENS CHAMPIONS LEAGUE: Arsenal v Real Madrid 2000 KO, live on 5 Live.Thursday 20th November WOMENS CHAMPIONS LEAGUE: Chelsea v Barcelona 2000 KO, live on 5 Live.Saturday 22nd November PREMIER LEAGUE: Liverpool v Nottingham Forest 1500 KO, live on 5 Live.
