By Advocate | June 14, 2024 | 2 min read |

Scotland coach Steve Clarke expressed confidence ahead of his team's opening match against Euro 2024 hosts Germany on Friday in Munich.

Clarke aims to become the first man to guide Scotland to the knockout phase of a major tournament, but his team faces a formidable challenge against the three-time European champions.

"We have a lot of respect for the host nation and we know they're a good team," Clarke said. "It's a difficult game. One of the mantras I've had is respect everyone and fear no one."

Scotland will need to be at their best to compete with Germany, who have a rich history of success in the European Championship.

The Scots will be looking to make a strong start to their campaign and build momentum for the rest of the tournament.

Clarke's side will be hoping to draw inspiration from their recent performances, which have seen them climb to second place in their qualifying group for the tournament.

With a talented squad at his disposal, Clarke is optimistic about Scotland's chances of making an impact at Euro 2024.

As the tournament opener approaches, all eyes will be on Munich to see if Scotland can upset the odds and defeat the host nation.

Clarke's message of respect and fearlessness will be put to the test as his team takes on one of the tournament favorites.
