Scotland's Euro 2020 dreams live on after Steve Clarke’s side squeezed past Israel 5-4 on penalties after a goalless draw at Hampden on Thursday.
There was little between the teams during 120 minutes of tense action and so spot-kicks were required to decide who would go on to face Serbia in next month’s play-off final.
It was the visitors who blinked first as David Marshall saved Eran Zahavi’s opening effort for Israel.
And with John McGinn, Callum McGregor, Scott McTominay and Lawrence Shankland all converting, it was left to Kenny McLean to fire home the decisive kick, which ensured Scotland go to Belgrade with hopes of reaching a first major tournament since 1998 alive and kicking.
Elsewhere, Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland’s play-off semi-finals also went to penalties, with the former emerging victorious against Bosnia and Herzegovina while the latter suffered heartbreak in Slovakia. PA
