Scotland reached the quarter-finals of the
World Youth Championship on two occasions: in 1983, where they lost to eventual winners
Poland; and in 1987, when tournament runners-up
West Germany won on penalties. The team last played in a competitive tournament in the
2007 FIFA U-20 World Cup, which Scotland qualified for by finishing second in the
2006 UEFA European Under-19 Championship. An under-20 team was selected for the
2017 Toulon Tournament, the first time since 1999 that Scotland had competed. Scotland registered a first ever win against
Brazil at any level in the groups. The team finished with the
bronze medal, which was the nation's first ever medal in the competition's 45-year history. ==Competitive record==
