Just over six years on from his appointment as manager of the Scotland national team, head coach Steve Clarke will officially become the nation’s longest-serving manager against Belarus this weekend.
Aiming to become the first manager to take Scotland to three major tournaments, Clarke will take charge of his 72nd game when Belarus comes to Glasgow on Sunday, overtaking Craig Brown, who was previously Scotland's longest-serving boss.
His first game in charge, best remembered for a last minute winner from Oli Burke, came on Saturday 8 June 2019, as Scotland downed Cyprus 2-1 at Hampden Park in a European Championship qualifier, which they won 2-1 thanks to strikes from Andy Robertson and the aforementioned Burke.
But where are the starting XI from Clarke’s first Scotland game now? Here’s what happened to every player who featured in the 62-year-old’s first game in charge of the national team:
13. Sub: Scott McTominay
The ex-Manchester United midfielder has grown into one of Europe's best players since his move to Napoli last summer. Won the La Liga title in his first season with the club, broke Denis Law's record for most goals scored by a Scot in the Italian top flight, and was named 21st in the Ballon d'Or awards last month. | SNS Group Photo: SNS Group
14. Sub: Stuart Armstrong
The experienced midfielder has over half-a-century of caps for the national team, but has not played for his country since a 1-0 win over Poland in the Nations League last year. Moved to the MLS earlier in the year, agreeing a deal with Vancouver Whitecaps, before opting to return to the UK after just four months with Sheffield Wednesday. After his release by the Owls, he moved back to the Scottish Premiership this summer, linking up with Jimmy Thelin's Aberdeen. | Andrew Milligan/PA Wire Photo: Andrew Milligan/PA Wire
