Obviously Scotland are looking to win the game, all I am saying is if we were to draw there is still a good chance we could still qualify.Quote:

A few preseason friendlies today in Scotland. Only result I’ve seen is Brechin 0-2 Dundee Utd
Did Ronaldo try to win a penalty just as Portugal scored there lol
Currently that is the position, however if Scotland were to draw tomorrow, they would move to 2 points which would put them to 4th position of the 6 groups.The teams below them who could displace them from 4th would still have to play their final game, but all are not fancied in these games.Quote:

What on earth happened there.
The bottom teams don't play each other though. I've checked and it can happen but a draw would leave us in a very sticky situation.Quote:

What on earth was the defender doing ? He didn't even look to see where the keeper was 😂
Lee Dixon scored a belting own goal, lobbed Seaman about 40 yards…..
Don’t say that - I’d quite happily take one worse or better than that - depending on how you analyse it - from the Hungarians - or even 3Quote:

Spain and Italy win leaving 3rd place on 1pt
Group F
Turkey and Portugal win leaving 3rd place on 1pt
We obviously only need two of these to play out, or preferably we just win :)

Define ‘good chance’ :greengrin im no statistician but its less than a 1/4 surelyQuote:

They will instead face a 3rd place team, maybe even us. Game changer for them despite the fact i would actually fancy them against France.Quote:
