Notes: This was the first match of the UEFA Nations League.
The new tournament, which was approved during UEFA's assembly on 27th March
2014, is to be a biennial international competition involving the men's
national teams of the 55 member associations of UEFA. Due to its structure,
it almost completely replaces the often meaningless international friendlies
on the FIFA calendar. Each campaign, in addition to having its own winner,
provides for promotion and relegation. It also contributes towards qualification
for the World Cup and European Championship finals. The inaugural 2018-19
edition is linked to 2020 European Championship qualifiers.

Notes: Scotland finished second in their group and failed to gain promotion
to League A in the 2022-23 Nations League. As runners-up, they also
missed out on securing a World Cup 2022 play-off spot set by UEFA
via the Nations League 2020-21. This makes Scotland's next qualifying
campaign, which starts in March 2021, crucial if they are to qualify
for the finals in Qatar.
