Scotland end 36-year World Cup wait with McGinn winner against Haiti, lead Group C
Scotland beat Haiti 1-0 thanks to John McGinn’s deflected strike, securing their first World Cup win in 36 years and topping Group C. The Athletic projects an 88% chance of reaching the knockout stage, though they still face Brazil and Morocco. Tactically, a 4-4-2 struggled to control Haiti, prompting discussion of reverting to a wing-back system, with Ben Gannon-Doak delivering a promising breakout showing.
