Scotland manager Steve Clarke prepares to face host nation Germany in the opening match of EURO 2024
TIMESTAMPS
00:21 busy press conference, so it must be a big game. Looking forward to the match.
00:33 distracted by the hype? We know it's a big game, but just the first of four group matches. We will avoid the sideshow.
1:13 Germany? We respect the host nation – respect everyone and fear no-one
01:40 thousands of Scots here in Germany? it gives us a big boost – they are here to enjoy themselves and behave themselves
02:23 Haaland going off in qualifier v Norway a defining moment? it was a pivotal game.
03:32 belief in squad? We believe we can get a result every time we go to the pitch otherwise, what's the point?
03:53 Can you enjoy this? Yeah. I have the experience of big matches. For example Champions League final. I'll enjoy even better once we've got four points on the board.
04:41 injury news? Everyone's really flying, desperate to be selected and ready to go.
05:01 are the players ready? That's what they have to do. I'm sure they'll handle the occasion quite well.
05:18 inspiration from other coaches? They all want to win but they've all got a different way of approaching things and getting their message across - I just try to be myself.
Thoughts on Germany? people were trying to talk them down a little bit, but we expect a really tough game and nothing's changed my mind.
06:40 Back to back Euros and playing in the opening game? It's been a long time since 1998 when we actually travelled abroad to be involved in a major tournament like this – the nation is so excited.
07:30 any anxiety? There has been an edge in training, which is always nice to see ahead of a big match.
