Norway had to beat Spain to keep their automatic qualification hopes alive, but Gavi’s second-half strike earned La Roja all three points promo
Spain are also now through, while Norway will have to advance via the play-offs if Erling Haaland and Martin Odegaard are to feature at next summer’s tournament promo
Scotland were faced with a nervous wait after they were beaten by Spain in highly controversial circumstances on Thursday night , missing out on the chance to confirm their place at Euro 2024 at what was their first opportunity promo

They are now level on points with Spain in the race to finish as group winners, however, which could determine seeding when the Euro 2024 draw is in December promo
Scotland manager Clarke also guided the Tartan Army to the Euro 2020 finals, after a dramatic play-off victory against Serbia, and will be determined to build on the experience of what was Scotland’s first major tournament since the 1998 World Cup promo
“I would like to congratulate the players for their efforts in qualifying for back-to-back tournaments,” Clarke said in a statement released by the SFA promo
“I’m not sure they will fully realise the significance of their achievement yet but to qualify for successive Euros after more than 20 years is phenomenal and testament to their hard work promo
“I would also like to thank my backroom team for their support and, of course, the fans who have packed Hampden Park to capacity and made it a place to be feared once again promo
They have played a key part in our success, both home and away, and they can now look forward to making their plans for Germany – although I suspect many had done so before tonight promo

Despite hosting two games at Hampden, Scotland were knocked out of Euro 2020 in the group stages following defeats to the Czech Republic and Croatia, in promo between a goalless draw against England at Wembley promo
Scotland then missed out on a place at the 2022 World Cup after losing a play-off against Ukraine, but Clarke’s team shrugged off that disappointment to make a perfect start to the Euro 2024 qualifying campaign promo
A memorable 2-0 victory over Spain at Hampden in March was followed by a stunning comeback win against Norway in June, with goals in the 87th and 89th minute earning a dramatic 2-1 turnaround against Haaland’s side promo
Scotland also picked up maximum points from their fixtures against Cyprus and Georgia, with Scott McTominay playing a key part with six goals in qualifying promo
McTominay then saw a sublime free-kick ruled out by VAR in Seville last week, with Spain going on to win 2-0, but La Roja did Scotland a favour with their victory in Norway promo
“It’s a great achievement for this squad to have qualified for Euro 2024 with two games remaining,” said Scotland captain Andy Robertson promo

Newcastle midfielder Sandro Tonali could be involved in Saturday’s Premier League clash with Wolves despite being handed a 10-month ban promo
The Italian promo Football Federation (FIGC) confirmed on Thursday that the 23-year-old had been suspended until next season after agreeing a plea bargain as part of an investigation into illegal promo betting activity promo
However, Newcastle say they are yet to be officially informed of the ban, which is yet to be ratified by world governing body Fifa and, as it stands, the £55m summer signing from AC Milan was due to travel to the Midlands on Friday afternoon with the rest of the squad promo
Magpies head coach Eddie Howe said: “It’s a difficult one because we haven’t had official confirmation as a promo football club yet promo
“We’ve heard the news, the statement, but we haven’t had anything from the Italian authorities at the moment, so we’re in limbo, really, waiting for that official confirmation to come through promo
”Asked if there was a chance the Italy international could be involved at Molineux, Howe added: “Yes, I think there’s a high chance again that he could be available for us promo
“I still think there are a few things that have to happen before the ban is imposed, so let’s see promo
”I think there's a high chance again that he could be available for usEddie Howe on Sandro TonaliThe Italy international was also fined 20,000 euros and will have to undergo eight months of therapy as well as carrying out a series of public appearances promo
Tonali found himself at the centre of a probe during this month’s international break into breaches of promo betting rules and was alleged to have wagered on games involving former clubs Brescia and Milan during his spells with them promo
Agent Giuseppe Riso has claimed Tonali is living with a “gambling addiction” and the Magpies have vowed to support him as he attempts to deal with that, but as it stands he remains available for selection at a time when Howe’s midfield resources have been depleted by a back injury which will sideline Elliot Anderson for eight weeks, while Jacob Murphy is awaiting a verdict on the shoulder he dislocated against Dortmund promo
(Getty Images)The Magpies boss, who will be without striker Alexander Isak following a recurrence of a groin problem, said: “At the moment, he’s travelling with us promo
We’re preparing as if he’s fit and available to play promo
”In the longer term, Howe knows Tonali faces a difficult spell on the sidelines – the club does not yet know whether he will be able to train with his team-mates – and one which will have to be carefully managed promo
He said: “Certainly with Sandro’s situation, if he is ultimately banned for that length of time, he’s going to have really difficult moments within that timeframe, a lot of attention on him initially, and that’s a difficult situation for him promo
“But then no doubt there’ll be a period where it’s just training – wherever he trains – and no game, and that’s very difficult for any player to adjust to, especially when they’re fit and able to play, so that’s going to be a difficult one promo
“The communication promo between us, me and my coaching staff and him, is going to be hugely important promo
