Andy Robertson honestly didn't look like someone who had his emotions together after Scotland's 4-2 win over Denmark, which secured their World Cup qualification. He later admitted he had not. He said he'd been kind of shaky all day, trying to act normal around the boys, but according to him, it just wasn't working. Something about the day felt heavier than usual, and he couldn't shake it even before kick-off.
A lot of it came back to Jota. When they were still teammates at Liverpool, he and Jota used to talk randomly sometimes on long trips, sometimes in the gym, about how they both wanted to play in a World Cup.
But things didn't go right in 2022. Jota missed the World Cup because of that injury he picked up, and Scotland didn't qualify either. Robertson said it was one of those shared disappointments.
