Tottenham’s Andy Robertson one cap from Kenny Dalglish’s Scotland record
The Scotland captain enters Friday’s Nations League match against North Macedonia with 101 international appearances.
Tottenham defender Andy Robertson can equal Kenny Dalglish’s Scotland men’s appearances record Friday if he plays against North Macedonia in the UEFA Nations League at Hampden Park. The Scotland captain enters the match with 101 caps, one shy of Dalglish’s mark.
Dalglish played his final international 40 years ago this week, in a 3-0 win over Luxembourg. Robertson got to know him during his time at Liverpool and said Thursday that reaching 102 was a chance to recognize Dalglish’s career.
“For me, Kenny will always stand on top,” Robertson said. He could take sole possession of the record Monday if he also plays against Switzerland.
