Scotland men’s national football team

That this House congratulates the Scotland men’s national team’s 2-0 victory over Spain in their UEFA Euro 2024 qualifying fixture; applauds Scott McTominay on his two goals to secure all three points; acknowledges that the victory made it two wins from two games and that Scotland sit atop the group table; notes that the result marks the first defeat Spain have encountered in European Championship qualifying since 2014; regrets that coverage of the men’s national team and their success requires a paid subscription to view while games featuring the Wales and England men’s national teams are available free-to-air for all to watch and be inspired by; and welcomes any moves which may result in live coverage of Scotland men’s game being made available to supporters regardless of their ability to pay.
