Haiti better than expected so it hasn't been a bad game.

Agree, Scotland just needs to be a bit more on the front foot. Having said that, Haiti are no duffers.

Haiti are a proper World Cup throwback. Their first instinct is to kick you but they can absolutely play.

True, but we're just passing the time until Australia play Turkey.

Haiti probably deserve an equaliser, based on the balance of play. No real clear-cut chances though.

Need to be better to get a point against the others but fair play to 'em.

Well done Scotland. 3 points but not convincing

It didn't feel like the set up exactly suited McGinn to be honest. Is this where he usually plays, on the left drifting in?

What a performance. Best team from the British Isles by far.

Good on you ginger, kilt-wearing biscuit fanatics!

I remember when the WC was held in 1994 it was said amongst many stupid suggestions, the US wanted the game to be 4 quarters. That never happened but they’ve done it now with these “hydration breaks” which is nothing but an extended commercial timeouts.

Exactly right TV, this WC is ALL about the money - it's sickening. I've little interest beyond England, Scotland and the US (for my daughter and wife) and even with England I'm only watching the games, cant be bothered with the whole media circus.
