Half-time footage during ITV's live coverage of the Scotland v Denmark World Cup match on this day in 1986. Includes brief action from Paraguay against Iraq.
This was the tournament where I thought Scotland would go quite far. Possibly quarter finals. Definitely a missed opportunity for them at the time. Mind you the way Uruguay kicked them out of it was disgusting.
Wonderful commentary and great memories. Thank god one of the panelists took to horse racing and very well at that indeed

Nicol missed a sitter against Uruguay.
The 'Bertie Bassett' strip. Those shorts were horrific.
I remember my Granny asking why the Scotland team had suspenders on.
Where are you getting all this stuff from? Great memories. These games were on about 12:00am if I recall correctly
Denmark won all games in the group. 6-1 against Urugay and 2-0 over West Germany
Channon!! best World Cup music
"Line-acre"
Everybody 4-4-2...what a change we've had
Analysis- why did Scotland not beat Denmark in 1986? Front two, Sturrock and Nicholas!!! 🙄
Who would you have had up front? Scotland had so many options in the mid 80s what happened man
Denmark were always goin to win that game
@@kincaid7550 Surely McAvennie should have been in the running for a place considering his achievements at West Ham that season
Nicholas wasn't professional, and shouldn't have played. Scotland should've won the game. Elkjaer got lucky.
@chrisdunbar1976 Nicholas was stretched off with torn ligaments after a brutal tackle from Klaus Berggreen who should've been sent off.
Can't believe that at 5:55 - it's Clive Thomas mark 2 !
Saint's not got a clue, has he?
Those shorts looked like mini skirts from a distance. Pretty sure it caused the decline of the national team.
You wear kilts mate. If anything you should have prospered
