Alex Ferguson admits he cried tears of joy when Scotland beat Serbia to qualify for this year's delayed Euro 2020 championships.

The former Manchester United manager said he burst into tears when Ryan Christie, who had given the Scots a 1-0 lead before the Serbians levelled, started crying in a post-match interview.The Scots sealed their place in their first major finals since the 1998 World Cup winning 5-4 on penalties when David Marshall saved Aleksandar Mitrovic's spot-kick.

"When Serbia scored in the last minute I thought 'oh Christ Almighty, extra-time, no chance'," he told Glasgow's Euro 2020 team to mark 50 days to the start of the tournament."And then the Ryan Christie interview. Scotland host Czech Republic and Croatia at Hampden Park, either side of a Wembley clash with England -- a re-match of the Euro '96 group game when England beat the Scots 2-0.
