World Cup 2026: Scotland captain Andy Robertson – inside the fairytale journey


“He doesn’t like to talk about his story,” John McGinn told the Scottish FA.

“He won’t like to hear it – but it will never happen again. Part-time football moves so quickly, Liverpool, Champions League winner, Premier League winner, captaining your country at the World Cup. It’s the stuff of fairy tales.

“This is one documentary I can’t wait to sit down and watch, the Andy Robertson documentary.”

His manager at Hull, Steve Bruce, noted Robertson’s ability to grow and take on bigger challenges. Strachan said his intelligence meant he learned very quickly.

Robertson mainly attributes his ascent to “luck” for having coaches and managers who were willing to give him a chance, as well as his work ethic.

“All I could control was that I went into football: ‘I’ll give it 100% and, if I don’t make it, at least I can look back and go, you know, I gave it absolutely everything and it wasn’t for me.'”

Robertson is on course to surpass Great Dalglish’s record of 102 caps for Scotland and has already made the most appearances as captain.

McTominay’s mural marking the midfielder’s overhead kick against Denmark adorns a tenement next to Hampden, just a few miles from where Robertson grew up. It may be required by some companies.

Robertson is the guy who posted about breaking Lionel Messi’s hair on his way to winning the Champions League.

From answering the Hampden phone to ending Scotland’s World Cup strike at the same venue, 14 years later.

He may not like to hear it, but it’s a story that should inspire young Scots for generations.
