Steve Clarke resigned as manager of the Scottish national football team after Scotland's elimination from the World Cup group stage was confirmed on Saturday, June 27, 2026. The decisive result was the match between Croatia and Ghana, in which Croatia won 2:1, definitively ending Scotland's hopes of advancing. teraz.sk ↗
Scotland collected three points in the group and for a time could still hope that this would be enough to reach the knockout stage. However, after Croatia's victory over Ghana, it became clear that the team led by Clarke was out of the tournament. The Scots appeared at the World Cup after 28 years, but failed to advance from the group. eurofotbal.cz ↗
Clarke led the national team for seven years. His departure was announced shortly after the elimination was confirmed and, according to available information, came suddenly. Several sources note that Scotland also lost its final group-stage match against Brazil, which further reduced its chances of continuing in the tournament. BBC News ↗
The Scottish Football Association will now have to address the question of a successor before the next international period. Elimination in the group stage marks the end of an era for a team that returned to the World Championship after a long wait, but was unable to assert itself among the qualifying teams. HVG ↗
