[BBC]

We asked for your views after Scotland beat Denmark 4-2 with two injury-time goals on a nerve-shredding night at Hampden to qualify for a first World Cup since 1998.

Here are some of your comments:

David: That was the best sport ever. Emotion, world-class goals and that Scottishness thrown in. So happy.

Alan: I was in France 98, it was special. We have waited so long, this is an exceptional night and a moment that will lift the nation - everyone will be on a high from now till we lift the Word Cup.

Tom: What a result - with three brilliant goals worthy of winning any game! Now we can dream of winning enough money to go to the Americas and be part of the Tartan Army again. I was in Spain '82 and Italy '90 and I'd love to have one last hurrah.

Gordon: Only good players score goals like that. Only the best players score goals like that under pressure.

Chris: It took three absolute screamers but we finally did it, no longer glorious failures but we are going to the World Cup! At last Lawrence Shankland gets a real go and offered more threat than Che Adams and Lyndon Dykes - he needs to start for Scotland more as he's a bag of goals. No Scotland no party!

Calum: An utter privilege to watch this team achieve an all-time high. Well done to each and every one of them and to Clarke and his staff.

Alan: I still can't believe it. Scotland don't do this. They don't score when they need to. Never mind twice or thrice! They don't get the luck. They don't score overhead kicks. And eight mins of stoppage time is when the opponent lands a sucker punch. We've no right scoring those goals. I'm crying and laughing. It's so unbelievable. What a night.
