NEW!!! Scotland Nat.team 2009 Home kit
The Scotland national football team represents Scotland in international football and is controlled by the Scottish Football Association. The team has played international football longer than any other nation in the world along with England, who they played in the world's first international football match at the West of Scotland Cricket Club, Partick, in 1872. The match ended in a goalless draw.[1]. All eleven players who represented Scotland that day played for proud Glasgow amateur club Queen's Park. Scotland has always had its own representative side that plays in all the major professional tournaments, except for the Olympic Games as the IOC only recognises the United Kingdom. Some of Scotland's most famous results include, in 1967, defeating the World Cup holders England 3-2 at Wembley Stadium and, in the 1978 World Cup, beating one of the tournament favourites, the Netherlands, 3-1 with Archie Gemmill scoring a famous goal. Some fans jovially claim the 1967 victory against England made Scotland the unofficial world champions. This joke ultimately led to the conception of the Unofficial Football World Championships. Interestingly, Scotland have won more UFWC title matches than any other side.
