GLASGOW (Reuters) - Scotland were not good enough to progress in their first major tournament in 23 years but will make sure they don't wait as long for the next one, manager Steve Clarke said after his side's exit from Euro 2020 on Tuesday.

A 3-1 defeat by 2018 World Cup runners-up Croatia at Hampden Park left the Scots last in Group D and yet to reach the knockout stages of a European championship or World Cup in 11 attempts.
