Being Scotland vice-captain is 'a great honour' - Cuthbert

Scotland last appeared at a major tournament in 2019 when they played at the Women's World Cup in France and are aiming to take another step towards a return to the finals by defeating Luxembourg at Hampden on Saturday night (17:00 GMT), a game live on BBC Alba.

As a veteran of the 2019 campaign, Cuthbert hopes that the past experiences of the team can help them prepare for their current challenge.

"Everybody knows what it means to get to a World Cup being a Scotland player," she said.

"But I think it's important not to dwell too much because we've had good campaigns, bad campaigns. We want to now focus forward.

"We've got a new group here, a new manager, but of course. I think it's important to instil the highs and lows of a campaign."

Cuthbert knows that the qualities the squad have developed over their previous campaigns will be key if the side want to reach the finals in Brazil next year.

She said: "I think that's the important part, is the resilience that it's going to take over the course of a campaign to qualify."
