The Auld Enemy lost 1-0 Down Under but there weren't many tears shed north of the border.
Scotland legend Denis Law was famously on the golf course when England won the World Cup in 1966 - and threw his cubs away in disgust when the news was broken to him that the Auld Enemy had beaten West Germany at Wembley.
England’s first game after 1966 came against Scotland when Sir Alf Ramsey's triumphant team were defeated, giving Scotland the crown of unofficial world champions, with Law on the scoresheet. And it would have been the same scenario again had England won, with Sarina Wiegman's side facing Scotland at the Stadium of Light in Sunderland on Friday, September 22.
