Tartan Army,Steve Clarke,Euro 2024

The heartbreak is still fresh for the thousands of Scots who made the trip to Germany to back Steve Clarke's men.

Wake us up when this is over and the pain has been numbed. Because what went on here in Stuttgart last night felt like a rerun of all our very worst tournament nightmares.

That lessons had been learned and the mistakes which did for them last time round, would be eliminated. But ultimately, as the team bus rolled into the concrete underbelly of Stuttgart’s MHP Stadium a couple of hours or so ahead of kick-off, so the time for big talk and bold promises had reached its journey’s end.

Anthony Ralston almost created the first chance of the night with a searching cross from the right. And at the other end, Angus Gunn made a comfortable save when Bendeguz Bolla tried his luck from distance in a fleeting moment of Hungarian possession. Even more so, given Orban had smashed a header off Gunn’s crossbar in the dying minutes as Hungarian momentum was building and Scotland’s self-belief was beginning to wobble ever so slightly. It felt as if the second half was about to become a test of endurance.
