In a heartbreaking turn of events, Captain Andy Robertson offered a sincere apology to the Tartan Army as Scotland was eliminated from Euro 2024 with a heartbreaking 1-0 loss to Hungary in Stuttgart. Kevin Csoboth scored a last-minute goal in the 100th minute, dashing Scotland’s hopes of advancing in the tournament. Despite needing a win to stay alive, a draw would have kept faint hopes alive of progressing as one of the best third-placed teams. However, with the defeat, Scotland now sits at the bottom of Group A with just one point from their three matches, which included a 1-1 draw with Switzerland and a 5-1 loss to Germany.
This defeat extends Scotland’s wait for a breakthrough into the knockout stages of a major tournament, while Hungary will have to wait and see if their three points are enough to secure a spot in the next round.
Captain Robertson reflected on the match, acknowledging the devastating loss and expressing gratitude for the support from the country. He admitted the team felt the weight of expectations and the disappointment of letting everyone down. Despite the heartbreak, Robertson vowed to slowly pick up the pieces and thanked the fans for their unwavering support.
