Don Hutchison gives Scotland stars two-word masterplan on how to repeat his Germany heroics

dailyrecord.co.uk

Don Hutchison will forever be remembered by the Tartan Army for his soaring leap under the Twin Towers. But the former Scotland favourite admits he’d never have had his Wembley moment without his bullet strike in Bremen - and Tommy Burns.

Hutchison made history when he nodded home with the only goal against England in what was the Scots’ last trip to London before the Three Lions’ home was torn down and rebuilt.

But he’s also in the record books for being the last Scot to score a winning goal against Germany with his clinical strike in a friendly a few months before that play-off clash with the Auld Enemy.

His Wembley header wasn’t enough to book a slot for Craig Brown’s side at Euro 2000 but it has secured him a place in the hearts of the Scotland faithful.
