Reaching the World Cup! British media: McGinn was selected to take a drug test and missed the celebration in the Scotland locker room

November 21st British media talksport reported that despite helping the Scotland team reach the 2026 World Cup in history, McGinn missed the celebrations in the locker room because he was selected to take a drug test.

The Scotland team drew 2-2 with Denmark within 90 minutes, and the game was about to enter the play-offs. But with Tierney's key goal and Kenny McLean's lob near midfield, Scotland won 4-2 and qualified for the World Cup for the first time since 1998.

When the team celebrated wildly in the locker room after the game, McGinn was blocked from the door because he had to undergo a mandatory drug test. During the interview, he reluctantly laughed and said, "It's always me," and posted an annoyed selfie on social media with the caption, "No screenwriter can write this plot." However, McGinn later returned to the court with his children and shared this historic moment with the fans who stayed behind.
