International Debut: May 23rd, 2002 v. Algeria

Paul Gallacher had been a regular goalkeeper for the Scotland Under-21 side, and was called up to the full squad early on in Berti Vogts reign as manager, making his international debut in Hong Kong in May 2002, coming off the bench for the final 15 minutes. He made his first start in a 3-1 win over Canada in October, and by 2004 he had become a regular starter for a run of international friendly matches. After moving to England to further his career, Gallacher failed to maintain his place in the Scotland starting eleven, but was incuded in the squad many times, and added a further two Scotland B caps to the three he had collected at Tannadice.
