Scotland wait on a miracle after third-place Group C finish

Scotland's World Cup campaign is over unless the maths breaks their way. Steve Clarke's side finished third in Group C on three points with a -3 goal difference, and John McGinn put it bluntly: "we need a miracle to go through" (1). A win over Haiti and defeat to Morocco left everything riding on Brazil, and the final matchday did not deliver what the Tartan Army needed. Now it is a waiting game, results in other groups will decide whether Scotland sneak into the round of 32, but McGinn's honesty tells you how slim those chances are.
