Steve Clarke has stepped down as the head coach of Scotland, a decision made public shortly after the nation was officially eliminated from the World Cup. Having taken the helm in 2019, Clarke had recently extended his contract for another four years, but the disappointing outcome has prompted a thorough reassessment from the 62-year-old.
The conclusion of Group L saw three teams successfully advance, while Group J also wrapped up its matches.
In a heart-wrenching turn of events, not only did Scotland suffer, but Iran too faced disappointment as a late goal against Egypt was disallowed by VAR.
Greetings to all, regardless of the time of day. The final 32 teams have been determined, and the resignation of Steve Clarke follows Scotland’s confirmed exit.
This is where significant decisions are made, with just one match remaining: South Africa will face Canada in Los Angeles, as the co-hosts are summoned to cross the border.
