Scotland disappointed me last night - lots of huff and puff but never bothered Morocco at all, sadly. And now Im tired this morning! Haha.

Wish them well against Brazil, just one point needed

We were threatening to get to HT with an XG of 0. Got a wee bit better ( ending on a mighty 0.54 with Morocco, while largely in control, actually just on 0.97 ). And we did have a couple of penalty shouts that were probably in the category of - have seen them given. It was far from great but after that goal on 2 minutes, at least our goal difference didn't take a big hit.

Anyway yes, like for England, a 4th point would be good 

Seriously, I am fairly sure that quite a number of 3rd placed teams will get through on 3 points with goal difference probably then the determining factor. There is a chance though that simply having 3 points will do but that would certainly need results falling the right way for at least 4 groups to have their 3rd place team on 2 points or less, for starters their bottom 2 teams would have to draw with each other.
