Depleted Scotland need a rousing Euro 2024 sendoff after lean run
Steve Clarke wants his side to ‘relax and enjoy it’ as they look to lift mood in final pre-Euros friendly against Finland
It would be hugely disrespectful to Tommy Conway and Lewis Morgan to suggest Steve Clarke has needed to scrape the international barrel to fill out Scotland’s squad for the European Championship. However, the late additions of a player who has never turned out for the senior team and another who won his two caps in 2018 perfectly illustrates a fraught tournament buildup.
Finland’s visit to Hampden Park on Friday evening has been widely billed as a sendoff occasion in front of a near-capacity crowd. Clarke and his team want to have the roars of a nation in their ears as they board a flight to Bavaria two days later. Barring outright disaster, this will come to pass.
