About David Marshall (Scottish footballer) in brief
David James Marshall is a Scottish professional footballer. He plays as a goalkeeper for Championship club Derby County and the Scotland national team. Marshall started his career at Celtic before joining Norwich City in 2007. He moved to Cardiff City in 2009, and helped them win promotion to the Premier League in 2013. Marshall stayed with Cardiff until 2016, when he was transferred to Hull City for £5 million. After three seasons with Hull he signed for Wigan Athletic. Marshall made his full international debut for Scotland in 2004. He has since won 41 caps, despite having had to compete with Craig Gordon and Allan McGregor for the goalkeeping position in the national team for much of his career. Marshall played a key role in Scotland’s qualification for UEFA Euro 2020, as he made decisive saves in penalty shootouts against Israel and Serbia. He made his debut for Celtic in March 2004 in a fourth round UEFA Cup tie against Spanish giants FC Barcelona. In July 2007, Celtic agreed to transfer Marshall to Norwich permanently for an undisclosed fee. Marshall signed on loan for Norwich in January 2007, but was sidelined for the remainder of the 2006–07 season due to an injury sustained in a FA Cup fourth round tie with Chelsea in February after falling awkwardly on his ankle.
On 12 May 2009, following Norwich’s relegation, Marshall signed for Championship side Derby County in a deal worth up to £500,000. He was chosen as the first choice goalkeeper over Finland international Peter Enckelman by manager Dave Jones, making his debut on the opening day of the season in a 4–0 win over Scunthorpe United before conceding his first goal in a 1–1 draw with Blackpool in the following match. In the first two games under Gordon Strachan he conceded nine goals: five to Artmedia Petržalka and four to Motherwell. Marshall suffered an injury in a 2–1 loss against Ipswich Town, resulting in PeterEnckelman coming on for the last 45 minutes and two goals being scored. After a quick return Marshall kept three consecutive clean sheets. But he only managed to make his final appearance of the 2010–11 season against Stoke City before receiving an 11–11 FA Cup win against Middlesbrough. Marshall didn’t see first team football until the beginning of December 2010.
