"Here is a selection of your reactions as thoughts turn to the 5 December draw for the finals themselves - and travel plans for next summer... From a stirring rendition of Flower of Scotland, through Scott McTominay's overhead kick, Steve Clarke's tactics, Lawrence Shankland's tap in, Kieran Tierney's screamer, Kenny McLean's decisive lob from his own half, to the tears and emotional scenes of celebration, Scotland fans have been waking up with the most pleasant of hangovers."
"That 90 minutes was the perfect antidote to 28 years of misery - the last-minute concessions (Belgium 2001, Italy 2007) the poor performances and that halfway line lob against the Czechs at the Euros. All of those washed away in the most incredible 90 minutes I've watched in years. Don't start me on the anthem or I'll start greetin' again."
Scotland beat Denmark 4-2 at Hampden, securing qualification for the expanded 48-team men's World Cup in the United States, Canada and Mexico and ending almost 30 years without a finals appearance. Two late goals and a sequence of memorable strikes — including Scott McTominay's overhead kick, Kieran Tierney's long-range effort, Lawrence Shankland's tap-in and Kenny McLean's lob from his own half — produced an emotional celebration. Steve Clarke's tactics received praise. Fans sang and celebrated loudly, expressing pride, disbelief and relief, while attention now turns to the 5 December draw and planning travel for next summer.
