Steve Clarke’s groundbreaking team embodies a fierce work ethic that epitomizes Scotland’s spirit.
There was no room for calm contemplation. Kenny McLean had just lobbed Kasper Schmeichel from the halfway line. It was a moment of limbs, pure and unrestrained joy.
One unforgettable Hampden Park night saw McLean, Kieran Tierney, and Scott McTominay overshadow Archie Gemmill’s legendary solo goal against the Netherlands in 1978, relegating it to merely the fourth greatest Scotland goal ever. Zinedine Zidane’s volley for Real Madrid during the 2002 Champions League final at Hampden? Just a tap-in by comparison. The magic conjured by McTominay, Tierney, and McLean will be cherished in the memories of the children and grandchildren of those present on that Tuesday night. McLean is affectionately known as “the Mayor of Norwich.” He might as well be the mayor of Nairn, North Berwick, and Newtongrange now.
