Summary:
A Nation Again is the chaotic tale of the Scotland men's team's return to a major tournament after more than 20 years in the wilderness.
Ten had come and gone for Scotland since they reached France '98, but the birth of UEFA's Nations League offered a new route to glory. In early 2018, after a long search for Gordon Strachan's replacement, Alex McLeish became manager for a second time. Despite successfully navigating the Nations League group stage, it wasn't plain sailing, and his tenure ended after a shocking defeat at the start of Euro 2020 qualifying.
With a play-off semi-final on the horizon, the Scottish FA turned to Steve Clarke, who took on the challenge of inspiring a team rooted in failure, creating a band-of-brothers mentality and figuring out how to organise this incredibly talented group of players. From a couple of the lowest lows, came the highest high.
With exclusive memories and audio from those who were part of the journey, such as John McGinn, Stephen O'Donnell, Lyndon Dykes, Ryan Christie and David Marshall, this is the story of how Scotland finally became a nation again.
