When the final 60 seconds of regular time began, there was silence. Scottish fans had long cheered for their team, they sang and whispered, they shouted and clapped – but now only the check could be heard in Glasgow’s Hampden Park.
The Scots didn’t play a bad game. When referee Daniel Seibert ended the game after four minutes of stoppage time, coach Steve Clarke’s team had nearly twice as many shots on goal (19:10), won more tackles (54 percent), and had Had more authority (58 percent)) – but in the end the Czech Republic rejoiced, as attacker Schick scored two special goals.
Schick meets head – and 45 m . from
The Leverkusen player first met after a cross when he won against two Scots in a header duel shortly before the break and placed the ball exactly in the corner (42nd) – then he succeeded in a stroke of genius: Schick pulled from 45 meters as he saw Scotland goalkeeper Marshall standing far enough in front of his box, the ball fell – and hit (52.).
