Scotify Wrapped 2025

Scotify Wrapped 2025

It’s that time of year again: you’ve spent the last three weeks frantically listening to Oasis and the Arctic Monkeys on repeat in a desperate attempt to rid Taylor Swift from your Spotify Top 5 and today is the day you find out if your hard work paid off. And after Steve Clarke and his squad of heroes sent Scotland through to the Men’s FIFA World Cup for the first time in 28 years - in the most dramatic of circumstances imaginable – we thought our readers deserved another gift: a Scotify Wrapped, if you will.

Following a historic year in Scottish football, one that will be remembered forever for those four beautiful goals on that night in November, we’ve unpacked all the stats, moods, meltdowns and moments that defined your year in dark blue.

Let’s hit play.

Your 2025 Scotify Wrapped

Your 2025 Viewing Stats

Since Scotland’s first match of 2025, you’ve cheered on your nation on 10 occasions, celebrated 6 wins, lamented 3 losses, and accepted the single draw that proved so decisive in the end – that backs-against-the-wall performance in Copenhagen.

Headline of the Year

You helped Scotland qualify for one World Cup – their first in 28 years. A rare achievement unlocked and one you and 5.5 million Scots will never forget. On Friday (5 December), Scotland will watch on in anticipation as the World Cup draw takes place in Washington D.C. Good luck anyone drawn in the same group as Scott McTominay and Kenny McLean.

Your Goal-scoring Playlist

You didn’t just watch Scotland score – you curated a 19-goal playlist this year. They came from 12 different artists: 11 Scots, plus a surprise from Belarus courtesy of Zakhar Volkov’s own goal in Hungary.

Chart Toppers

Ché Adams topped the charts with 5 goals, Scott McTominay contributed three times – including the 2026 Puskas Award winning goal, presumably - and Ryan Christie notched two.

O Four of Scotland, When Will We See Your Like Again?

Undoubtedly, the four most replayed goals of the year were:

• McTominay 3’ • Shankland 78’ • Tierney 90+3’ • McLean 90+8’ – the goal that shook the world, quite literally.

Such was the excitement of the occasions, and the brilliance of the goals scored, two instances of seismic activity were recorded as Scotland qualified for the World Cup Finals.

Your 2025 Emotional Breakdown

This year has certainly been a year of ups and downs. Your mood ranged from despair in June after a chastening defeat to Iceland, to pure and utter ecstasy in November, when all your footballing dreams came true over 98 mind-boggling minutes of football.

Rollercoaster.

And, true to form, you followed Scotland everywhere you go! In five away matches - beginning and ending in the Karaiskakis Stadium in Piraeus - you travelled 8,404 miles to support our team putting you in the top 0.001% of Scotland fans worldwide. In 2026, you’ll travel 8,404 more as Steve Clarke’s men take on the world in North America.

Your Top 5 Emotions

#1 – Ecstasy

It doesn’t happen often; many generations doubted it would ever happen again in their lifetime. But they did it. Steve Clarke and his men found a way to send Scotland to the World Cup and 5.5 million people into euphoria.

#2 – Shock

No, it wasn’t a dream and yes, Kenny McLean did score from the halfway line to send Scotland to the World Cup. Oh, and Scot McTominay did score the greatest overhead kick you have ever seen.

#3 – Hope

Despite decades of glorious failure, you believed. This time hope came with belief – something about this team felt different.

#4 – Content

It might feel odd to you but for the first time in years you experienced contentment. All it took was Scotland qualifying for the World Cup.

#5 – Despair

Most experienced in June and after 60 minutes in any Greece game. But who cares? The only June that matters is in 2026!

Your 2025 Scotify Wrapped Summary

In 2025, you witnessed one of the greatest nights in Scottish football history. On a night that mattered so much to so many, Steve Clarke and his men stood tall.
