A dejected Scotland squad has arrived back in Glasgow after a dramatic exit from the Euros.

The team, including Anthony Ralston, Lawrence Shankland, and James Forrest, landed at Glasgow Airport on Monday evening following a heartfelt farewell by an oompah band at their Stuttgart hotel.

Scotland's departure from the tournament was sealed by a 100th-minute goal from Hungary's Kevin Csoboth on Sunday.

Captain Andy Robertson expressed his sorrow to fans, stating they had 'given it everything.' The Tartan Army had traveled in large numbers to support the team across Germany, with many watching from fan zones or pubs.

Despite their passionate support, Scotland suffered a heavy 5-1 defeat to Germany, a 1-1 draw with Switzerland, and the last-minute 1-0 loss to Hungary.

Fans and players alike expressed their heartache but also pride in having competed at the Euros.
