Scotland’s World Cup qualifying win reactions equivalent to small earthquake

Celebrations to McLean's jaw-dropping goal picked up by seismic activity monitors at Glasgow Geothermal Observatory

When Scotland qualified for the men's football World Cup for the first time in 28 years, supporters were propelled into wild celebration - and even made the earth move in the process.

According to the British Geological Survey (BGS), when Kenny McLean scored from the halfway line to seal a breathtaking 4-2 win over Denmark, which are ranked 18 places higher in the world than Scotland, the reaction at Hampden Park was equivalent to a very small earthquake.
