Steve Clarke takes Scotland fans in the dressing room as our heroes have one demand set after win for the ages

Steve Clarke admitted his biggest concern was SUNBURN as Scotland beat the heat in Oslo with an ice cold finish to a game that must have stung for Norway.

As temperature topped 30 degrees in the Norwegian capital, the hosts looked to be pouring cold water on Scotland’s high hopes of qualifying for Euro 2024.

But Clarke is staying cool with Georgia in town on Tuesday, knowing they're a team that’s burned Scotland before. "I was worried about sunburn!” He joked when asked by Viaplay Sports how he coped on the sweltering touchline in his Scotland trackie top.

“I’ve told the players to rest, recover and get yourselves
