John Carver says Scotland are ready to upset Germany after ‘wonderful welcome’

John Carver expressed gratitude for Germany’s warm welcome to Scotland but stressed that the focus is now on upsetting the host nation in Friday’s Euro 2024 opener in Munich.

“It wasn’t a surprise that John was going to get up there,” said Clarke’s right-hand man, who revealed skipper Andy Robertson came off early during Scotland’s first training session simply as a precaution.“We got here yesterday and we got a wonderful welcome from the mayor and now we want to make an impact.

“It is very important that we embrace the community and we have certainly done that. It is a fantastic environment. “Let’s not forget who we are playing against. We are playing against the host nation, who are a very good team and you can never underestimate them. So we have to get our preparation right and hopefully we can get something out of the game.”

Clarke is already without the services of Lyndon Dykes, Ben Doak, Lewis Ferguson, Aaron Hickey, Nathan Patterson and Jacob Brown.
