GLASGOW, Scotland :Scotland reached the World Cup finals for the first time since 1998 in thrilling fashion as stoppage-time goals by Kieran Tierney and Kenny McLean secured a nerve-shredding 4-2 victory over Denmark at a rocking Hampden Park on Tuesday.

When Patrick Dorgu equalised for the second time in the 81st minute it seemed 10-man Denmark would secure the point they needed to top Group C and book their place in the finals.

But after a rollercoaster qualifying campaign for the Scots, the biggest twist was saved to the very end as they sparked the biggest party the city of Glasgow has seen for years.

When the ball came out to Tierney in the third minute of stoppage time he looked up and curled a superb left-footed shot past a diving Kasper Schmeichel.
