Scotland
Scotland return to the World Cup for the first time since 1998 — a 28-year wait that ended with a dramatic qualification campaign. Steve Clarke's team won their UEFA group with a famous stoppage-time victory on the final day. McTominay has been exceptional for Napoli and is Scotland's heartbeat; Robertson and McGinn provide Premier League-calibre quality throughout.

Tactical Blueprint
A compact 3-5-2 or 4-3-3 with high intensity and physicality. McTominay drives forward from midfield to contribute goals; Robertson provides relentless left-sided threat. Scotland are well-drilled and difficult to break down.
