David Marshall retires from international football
The 37 year-old has called time on his Scotland career
David Marshall has called time on his international career.
The Scotland hero has decided to retire to allow the next generation of goalkeepers to gain experience.
Marshall will be most fondly remembered for making a penalty save against Serbia to send Scotland to Euro 2020.
The 37-year old has made his debut 18 years ago in a friendly against Hungary and went on to win 47 caps.
His final appearance was in the final Euro 2020 group match against Croatia.
He told the Scottish FA's website: “I have thought long and hard about it since the disappointment of losing to Ukraine.
"I love playing for my country and the experience of helping the team to a major tournament has been the highlight of my career.
“I have memories of playing for Scotland that will last a lifetime but I also know what it is like as a young goalkeeper to have the opportunity. That was the overriding factor in my decision: Liam and Zander have been involved in recent squads for a while now and it is important that they can benefit from the experience of supporting Craig as No.1.
“The more I thought about it since the weekend, the more I was convinced it was the right thing to do before we start the Nations League campaign.
“My team-mates, the coaching staff and the backroom team all know how much I think of them, and I wish them all the best of luck for the coming games and in the campaigns ahead.
“It has been an honour and a privilege to represent my country and to play in front of our amazing fans as often as I did. There are simply too many people to thank for helping me on my journey, not least my long-time goalkeeping coaches, Jim Stewart and Stevie Woods. I am especially grateful to Steve Clarke for the faith he and his coaching staff have shown in me since he took over three years ago.”
