Scotland must be have-a-go heroes at the World Cup, as they’ve never had a better chance to reach the second phase, according to Tosh McKinlay. He's urging the Scots to learn the lesson of their Euros flop against Hungary, when they were too cautious. Tosh, who played at Euro’96 and France’98, is excited about the possibilities for Steve Clarke’s squad over in America.Follow us on social media:Facebook: ToePokePodcastTiktok: @ToePokePodcastInstagram: @toepokepodcastX: @thetoepokepodwww.toepokepodcast.comFilmed at The Green Room Glasgow: www.thegreenroomglasgow.co.ukDavid Tanner is talkSPORT’s Scottish football correspondent and previously presented live TV coverage of Scotland internationals on Sky Sports.

Scotland were unlucky not to beat Brazil at the 1974 World Cup. Davie Hay played alongside Billy Bremner in midfield and feels that the Scots were the better team in West Germany. The man dubbed “The Quiet Assassin” by Jock Stein was surprised to find that the then world champions were more physical than in previous tournaments - including the great Rivellino.
