Reaction'Surreal and humbling' - Andy Robertson on setting new Scotland record
The Liverpool left-back skippered his country for the 49th time as they drew 2-2 with Finland at Hampden Park in their final warm-up match ahead of Euro 2024 on Friday evening.
That tally represents a new benchmark for the men’s national team and Robertson today posted on social media: “To captain Scotland once was a dream come true. To surpass the record set by the great George Young is surreal and humbling.
“I am so grateful to Alex McLeish for having the faith in me to do it in the first place and of course to Steve Clarke for his continued support.
“We are ready, you are ready, let’s go and give it everything we’ve got.”
Scotland face hosts Germany at Allianz Arena in the opening game of the European Championship on Friday night, and will also meet Dominik Szoboszlai’s Hungary and Switzerland in Group A.
