Стивен Уэлш, выпускник академии Селтик, прокомментировал уход из клуба после 18 лет через трогательное видео в социальных сетях, показывающее его детство в форме Селтик. Теперь 26 лет и закаленный профессиональным футболом, он сохраняет ту же улыбку и любовь к игре. Уэлш spoke of his journey from bit-part player at Celtic to a pivotal season at Motherwell under Jens Berthel Askou, then to Swansea's Championship top, and earning three Scotland caps. He described his first win with North Macedonia as a relief, noting the team could have scored more. After a tough 3-0 loss to Switzerland, he emphasized mental resilience, crediting family, friends, and his agent for support.
Welsh acknowledged the challenge of limited playing time at Celtic despite his desire to stay, accepting that competition drives improvement. He praised the mental strength of players like John McGinn and Andy Robertson, stating that technical ability alone doesn't guarantee success—consistency and mindset do. As Scotland prepared to face Slovenia at Hampden Park, Welsh stressed the importance of building on recent performances and setting a winning standard for the squad.
