What an opportunity this represents for Steve Clarke’s Scotland. What an occasion this promises to be. But you already know that. It’s why you’re here. Why so many of you snapped up tickets for a game whose importance must be apparent to even the least mathematically literate among us. For the first time in Clarke’s tenure as national team boss, Hampden will be full to bursting. After so many closed-door matches and showpiece games played in front of limited crowds, the famous roar is sure to be back with a vengeance. And, if ever there was a fixture deserving of a full house at maximum intensity, it’s this evening’s visit of old friends Israel. So crank the volume all the way up to 11, folks. Because this World Cup qualifier is likely to prove absolutely crucial to our hopes of making it to Qatar next winter. Consider it a brilliant opportunity disguised as a daunting challenge. And a fitting reward for last month’s brilliant victory over Austria in Vienna, a result that changed the entire complexion of Group F - and lifted the mood of a nation. Win here and we’ll head into our final three fixtures with that allimportant runners-up spot firmly within our grasp. So close we could reach out and touch those play-offs. Like a middle-distance runner picking just the right moment to kick for home, a burst of pace right now would surely open up an insurmountable gap on the Austrians, in particular. And leave Israel needing help from others just to get back in the race. Sounds easy if you say it quickly enough, right? Rest assured that nobody in the Scotland camp will be making assumptions about any of the four matches remaining. HAMPDEN PARK / SATURDAY, 9 OCTOBER 2021 SCOTLAND v ISRAEL / 9
