Former Hibs legend John McGinn admitted the Scotland performance wasn’t the best last night but nobody cares because the 4-2 victory over Denmark sent them to their first World Cup Finals since 1998

The Aston Villa captain praised Clarke’s team talk ahead of kick off as well as the the added time Kieren Tierney strike that put them ahead.

Speaking after the final whistle amid emotional scenes on and off the pitch McGinn said: “I thought we were pretty rubbish to be honest, but who cares?

“To get over the line was such an amazing feeling. The gaffer’s team talk was exceptional.

“It’s a privilege every time we meet up. It’s just humble guys wanting to do well for their country. We left everything out there.

“You think that’s it – glorious failure, another blow. I was thinking about the play-offs in the 91st minute. But then what a hit from KT – I will never feel like that in a football stadium ever again.”
