00:00Thirteenth major tournament in all and they've never managed it before John McGinn's winner against Haiti
00:07Gives them that hope this time John McGinn scored the winner against Haiti and is key to their success on
00:14field as is Scott McTominay
00:18Marquinhos has capped in PSG to Champions League success in each of the last two seasons and leads Brazil tonight
00:30Away we go in Miami
00:34It's from Scotland's point of view were they to finish third they'll they'll have to wait to see whether it's
00:38in I've got four points one would think
00:40They'd be very unlucky not to go through with four
00:43Oh and a little bit of an error there and Vinicius Junior couldn't miss
00:47Scotland have gifted Brazil the opening goal of the match and it hasn't taken long
00:55He's gonna make no mistake whatsoever you see McKinney opens up he looks to try and play it long and
01:01it takes that big touch
01:03And Vinicius Junior is ready to pounce
01:06Very humid in Miami he's used to playing in the heat but he's giving it away
01:10And Vinny Junior's there to make it two
01:13It's the second horrendous mistake
01:17And Vinicius Junior cannot believe his luck tonight
01:22I mean it's just switching off you you're driven the ball out you're running into danger you're turning and it's
01:28just too slow
01:36Cancel the goal is final decision
01:41What a match the other one is in the group wilson isidore has restored haiti's lead morocco 182
01:49as casemiro
01:50sends it long into the scotland penalty area
01:54Ryan forward penny junior back it's off the line by patterson
01:59Superb defending brazil very close to scoring a second goal
02:03He cuts it back there good little movement one two basically down the line this is junior really quick pace
02:09kunyo the diving
02:11flick on
02:13Now it's with shankland
02:16Ganondote collects scotland threatening looking for the equaliser it's a total miscue but here he comes again
02:23sturdy but fair looking challenge i think from casemiro inside the penalty area yeah
02:27Look like he's got all the ball didn't he and you can see ganondote just runs into him
02:33Doesn't quite fall from again outside the penalty area
02:45It's 2-2 and uh ismail saibari with the equaliser from morocco what a first half in that one
02:55Here's the table as it stands in real time following that equalising goal for morocco
03:04Vinicius junior
03:06Down under pressure from nathan patterson referee right on the spot to see the challenge didn't like it
03:15The scoreboard's going mad the updates coming constantly for the crowd and they're showing them the replays of the goals
03:21in the other game as well
03:24Certainly entertaining for the fans here in the stadium as well not only their own game but seeing the highlights
03:28of the other match
03:33Paquetta key moments here added time at the end of the first half
03:37scotland can ill afford to ship another goal now
03:47This is danilo into bruno gimarais
03:51Ryan racing into the box
03:55Gimarais again it's above gone and philly juniors there to head it home at the far post
04:07It's known part of his body deserves score goal with his head
04:11This is it really really well
04:13as that was a bit of a
04:16Scuffle for the ball scotland never could quite deal with it as that ball gets played in the far post
04:21And this is juniors run is exceptional reads it really well adjustment is brilliant
04:25And all we need to do in the end is just guide it to the back of the net
04:31It was agonizingly out of reach for angus gun
04:35beyond paterson and vinicius jr scores his fourth goal of this world cup
04:43scotland ill brazil to finishes juniors reading of that ball as it was floating across
04:48The six-yard box was exceptional he read just you see him readjust his line angus gun just can't get
04:54there
04:55And in the end for vinicius jr was the opportunity all
04:59It in the end coming from a clearance by robertson that didn't quite clear the penalty area. It was intercepted
05:08But it was uh
05:10a delicious cross to the far pose for
05:14Vinicius jr. Yes, scotland haven't done well with the second ball
05:17They've struggled to deal with it not being quickest to react brisville
05:20We've always been on that front foot every time that ball comes down. They're ready to pounce
05:25Another example of it there where scotland half cleared it only just to the edge of the box
05:29Brazil were able to recycle it and get it back in the box really quickly and that's where they punished
05:34scotland once again
05:43There's andy robertson now sending it into the penalty area little ball nodded back shot coming in from
05:49gannon doke
05:52Vinicius jr scoring twice in a match for brazil for the second time in his career first time since the
05:57uh
05:57the copper america a couple of years ago
06:01jack hendry with the throw
06:05but tears kunya finishes jr loitering with intent
06:10paterson
06:14calls kindly for kunya
06:16lovely skill from vinny jr lucas paqueta in towards ryan it's brilliantly done and that's a fine save from angus
06:24gun
06:25that was nearly an exquisite goal right his first touch is
06:29sublime
06:30gives himself all the time in the well angus gun
06:33that is the next hand very good goalkeeping
06:36what an exciting young player he is to see the ball is sent in by lucas paqueta
06:41the header away falls invitingly for douglas santos
06:47yeah ryan arrived in uh bournemouth midway through the season
06:53and settled in very nicely indeed uh they'll have to wait a little while to find that out
06:58should that be the case but uh everything is important goal difference is important kieran tierney
07:04is going to come on to replace andy robertson
07:09so a lot of experience going off there scotland's captain heading off
07:30in the last game but on for the second half
08:02of this one
08:05done looking for lawrence shanklin they've been able to really get him into the
08:09game a great deal it's with mcgin
08:17mcgin playing with the captain's armband on in the second half following the
08:21the substitution of andy robertson that's jack hendry away to the far side
08:26andy robertson
08:31straight out of play off the boot of lewis ferguson
08:36i wonder if that's an injury to uh andy robertson or whether it's a it's purely a tactical decision
08:49he's the way of the boot of uh marquinhos
08:53collected by parketta was looking for vinicius jr calling kindly for guimaraes and
08:59work towards the near side and danilo who collects and danilo who's playing for flamingo these days so ryan back
09:07into
09:07guimaraes
09:19brazil unbeaten in the last five matches played before tonight winning four of them
09:27scoring quite freely 26 in the last 10 but only two clean sheets in the last nine before
09:33this evening allison actually wasn't in goal for a good many of those
09:36games in recent months ahead of the world cup
09:40haven't quite fired leading up to this world cup lost six games in that world cup qualification as well which
09:46is
09:46very un-brazil like um so they've certainly had a lot of work to do and allison being back in
09:51goal i think also is a big bonus
09:53this is better from scotland ben gannon doak
09:57kind of force his way through completely surrounded
10:02this is gabriel
10:06it'll be a scotland throw yeah more positive
10:09gannon doak there he's the one that's kind of causing has caused the most problems
10:12against brazil in this first 45 minutes started well in the second half
10:16and then the press on the ball that allowing brazil to play out so simply
10:19he forced the error gabriel has no other option he looks to try and play down the line you get
10:24a
10:24throw in and you can start again and try and make it inroads into this brazil side
10:31here's ferguson
10:34they might just might have a different feel if scotland could get on the board here and ferguson will
10:42try to keep
10:44this attacking move going but they're forced all the way back all of a sudden via jack henry to gun
10:54but tomany's underneath this
11:02berguson
11:13mc tomany away to the far side ben gannon doak
11:21positive start to the second half for steve clark side and here's tierney into mcgin
11:30tierney's ball into decent one on the header from mc tomany straight into the gloves of alison
11:37yeah a lot better from scotland seeing his ball into the box was really good really good
11:43direction pace on the ball mc tomany under a big challenge from casemiro there he wanted
11:58that's the first effort on target from scotland at this world cup since the john mcgin goal against
12:03haiti injury finding mc tomany they're looking to get him onto the ball a lot more already at the
12:09start of this second period in towards shankland
12:14yeah we've got to try and commit more players forward scotland if they want to
12:17cause any real problems against this brazil side they hate players in the box not just one player
12:22against two or three brazilian ball has to be pinpoint to have any opportunity any chance
12:29touch there from lewis ferguson space in midfield for lucas paqueta vinicius jr wants it forward he's
12:36got it as well it's vinicius jr saved by angus gun yeah good goal keeping really good vinicius jr run
12:43is really really really good he's so much pace the timing of the ball through was exceptional
12:51just couldn't get it across on his right foot and then he goes with the outside of his right foot
12:54i think that's why angus gun is able to make that save vinicius jr couldn't get the pace on the
12:59ball
13:02was noticeable i think i don't know what you all felt but scotland seemed to
13:06play much better in the second half of the last game against morocco as well when they were behind
13:10at halftime yeah when you have to chase the game a little bit they seemingly are a little bit better
13:14on the front foot but this is a different side it's not it's a brazil side that not necessarily he's
13:19going to sit back they'll absorb pressure but also have the ability to get forward and have players that can
13:24hurt you and this is juniors pace is is obviously frightening for for scotland
13:33here's mctominay
13:40kenner and hendry
13:45decent ball forward mctominay little flick challenge inside the box referee says get up
13:52and get on with the game it was nathan patterson who went down
13:56referee was well positioned and vinicius jr beaten to it by hendry
14:11it's going to be brazil's throat yeah that's going to be alert down there there's balls over the back
14:15over down the channels have to be alert to the danger and who does well on the end
14:21i think angus gun just gets a little bit confused as to tries to think it back across the same
14:26way
14:27best off sometimes just looking to clear your lines
14:40gemarash here's ryan
14:46danilo
14:54lucas paqueta
15:00scotland four steep here now
15:06patient from brazil
15:15can't be easy chasing the ball in conditions like this as the shot is fired in from
15:21vinicius jr once more very humid conditions tonight yeah it's got to be tough for scotland uh just sort
15:27of flying in to play this sort of game in these conditions it's tough for anyone to acclimatize and i
15:32think maybe that has a little bit of part to play in that first half performance maybe slightly
15:37off the pace of the game maybe a little bit lethargic because of the heat
15:41but uh second half has definitely been better but you can see that in that phase s
15:44brazil are happy to slow the play down are happy to move the ball from one side to the other
15:49they got
15:49movement off the ball players are happy to come and get the ball like vinicius jr has the ability to
15:54turn take on a play out drop a shoulder and get a shot on goal with some proper venom okay
15:58the direction
15:59wasn't quite right but again it's another warning sign you can't allow players like vinicius jr that
16:04room to run at you and have a shot on goal
16:15almost 10 minutes into the second half
16:21scott mckenna into
16:26mcginnow tierney
16:39and
16:40entry has patterson available on the far side
16:43great some space for himself here patterson
16:47into shanklin challenge inside the box
16:50referee says no foul on kenny mclean but there will be a free kick for brazil
17:01here comes ryan now
17:04made quite the impact in the premier league in england in the second half of the season following his uh
17:08arrival in the south coast in bournemouth from vasco de gama
17:18and that's a little too much on that for danilo
17:23yeah it's a really really good ball just over hit it didn't he
17:27couldn't get on the end of it in the end danilo he was even though he made the run quite
17:32early it's just too much pace on the ball
17:34so that chance earlier on vinicius jr fantastic ball just wanted it on his right foot didn't he bubbles up
17:41a little bit tries it on the outside of his foot
17:43and angus gun does really well makes himself big and it's a very good save yeah look like it might
17:49be the hat trick
17:50and he raced through into the penalty area there
17:53here comes ryan now lovely little touch matthias cunha
17:58big block falls at the feet of lucas paqueta tees it up
18:03and then sends it wide
18:06and it was scott mckenna there made himself really big kept his arms out of the way it's important block
18:12a little bit of defending from scotland of course brazil are gonna be on their fault for they're gonna look
18:17for that third goal and they're always a threat when they go forward
18:35shankland underneath it can't find a way through can't find a way past casemiro
18:39referee doing his best to try to keep the game going but
18:43realizing that on this occasion it would be better to to blow the whistle
19:10to danilo on the nearside delicate touch from paqueta lovely patterns
19:16excellent play brilliant feet from gimaraj matthias cunha
19:23brazil playing the beautiful game leading scotland by three goals to nil
19:30and a third goal of this world cup
19:33brazil are in cruise mode aren't they
19:35him our eyes does so so well initially with a possession of the ball the flick on the outside of
19:40the boot
19:42korea
19:42tarzan's gunna just had to find the back of the net put in a great position by his teammate
19:49And when the goal is gaping like that, he's just not going to miss, is he?
19:53And Brazil are in cruise control.
20:05And Carlo Ancelotti's team are going to win this group.
20:09There's no doubt about it now.
20:14And Matthias Cunha has found his groove at this World Cup.
20:24What's Lewis Ferguson got up his sleeve here?
20:27He's going for goal and brings the save from Alisson.
20:30Just above their head height, maybe someone's going to get a flick on it.
20:35Can they get a goal to give the Tartan army something to cheer about?
20:39Ferguson going to try to reach it at the far post.
20:42Here's Tierney.
20:45Another decent-looking ball from him.
20:46And the header down brings the save from Alisson.
20:48It was McTominay.
20:50Just this deficit.
20:53And that's the closest they've come to a goal.
20:55Yeah, it's a very good save from Alisson.
20:56They're really difficult to judge.
20:58Alisson does really well.
20:59He's got little short, little steps across his face of his goal.
21:02He's able to really adjust.
21:04Gets the ball down on the ground and quick delivery.
21:06That's McTominay almost gets one back.
21:10Given away.
21:11And now Vinicius Junior, who is way offside.
21:15Yeah, just when I was speaking about how well he was playing,
21:18Kieran's in, he plays a pretty poor pass back inward inside the midfield.
21:24And that gets the interception.
21:25He's just very fortunate that Vinicius Junior is a long way offside.
21:29We'll see a couple of changes shortly.
21:30Gabriel Martinelli and Fabinho are going to come on.
21:35And Carlo Anciotti clearly looking to just keep his team as fresh as possible.
21:39They've got that three-gold cushion in this match.
21:42Can't afford to do that as McTominay sends it forward.
21:45Ganondoke chasing for all he's worth.
21:48Scotland getting forward as much as they can to reduce this deficit.
21:54And that's the closest they've come to a goal.
21:56Yeah, it's a very good save from Alisson.
21:58They're really difficult to judge.
22:00Alisson does really well.
22:01He's got little short little steps across his face of his goal.
22:04He's able to really adjust quickly.
22:06There's a full stretch dive.
22:08Both hands behind it.
22:09Top, top class save from a top class goalkeeper.
22:12Double change.
22:13Gabriel Martinelli is coming on for Lucas Paqueta.
22:16Paqueta substituted for the third match in a row.
22:19At roughly the same point in all three of the group stage fixtures.
22:23Casemiro is the other player coming off.
22:26Fabinho on to replace him.
22:31Yeah, it's been tough for him.
22:32It really has.
22:33I mean, the service has been tough.
22:34Hasn't been able to get on the end of it.
22:36Often.
22:37Kenny McLean sending it forward.
22:39Tierney with another good ball into the box.
22:41Shankton sends it across.
22:42And it's just spinning.
22:45Yeah, very, very difficult chance.
22:47Again, Tierney on this left-hand side.
22:50He's the one that calls us all.
22:52Attack still alive.
22:54Swung in by him again.
22:56Back across.
22:58And behind for another corner.
22:59And that was Fabinho back helping out.
23:02Here's the live table.
23:04Brazil topping the group.
23:08Scotland with the same total they had at the start of play
23:11as Brazil come forward again with Vinicius Junior.
23:17Scotland with respite and with a free kick.
23:19Yeah, when you see there, it's a great save by Angus Gunn.
23:22By his right hand.
23:23Vinicius Junior really only one option.
23:25Angus Gunn's been warming the bench all season at Nottingham Forest.
23:28And now here he is trying to keep players like Vinicius Junior out.
23:32Into the Scotland box it goes.
23:34Back out to Ryan.
23:36Just took a moment to control it.
23:38Challenge there by McGinn.
23:45Scotland with respite and with a free kick.
23:48Yeah, when you see there, it's a great save by Angus Gunn.
23:51By his right hand.
23:51Vinicius Junior really only one option.
23:54Trying to get that near post area.
24:04Bruno Guimaraes, Fabinho.
24:08It's worked out well for Carlo Ancelotti, hasn't it?
24:11The last couple of matches they've been able to make some changes in the engine room
24:14after about an hour because of the scorelines.
24:17Yeah, it's worked well.
24:18And you're right.
24:18Like you say, Neymar, valuable minutes on the football pitch at a World Cup once again.
24:24Giving him an opportunity to find his way back in this side.
24:28Here he is.
24:31Trying to find a way through.
24:33Guimaraes.
24:37Scotland free kick.
24:41Heading for the final ten minutes of the game.
24:45Yeah, Scotland have got to dig deep.
24:47They're 3-0 down.
24:48It's a difficult one because often you feel like 3-0 down.
24:51You've lost the game.
24:52You're upset about it.
24:53You're disappointed.
24:54But it's more at stake here.
24:56They've got to keep this goal difference at a minimum.
24:58and even try and get one back.
25:04Scotland still plugging away.
25:06A couple of near misses.
25:07Alisson's made a couple of saves,
25:09but as they go in pursuit of a goal,
25:12and Brazil can counter here with Ryan.
25:14He has some support.
25:15Danilo sends it across to the far post.
25:19And again, it doesn't end up in the back of the net
25:21for the hat-trick for Vinny Jr.
25:23It was a tough one.
25:25The ball was hit with some pretty big venom
25:27across the face of the goal.
25:28Vinny Jr.
25:29There they are, waiting to come on.
25:35Very much one of the faces of this FIFA World Cup
25:38here in the United States.
25:41Brazil's still on the front foot.
25:44Swing at that from Gabriel.
25:46Yeah, it's a vital block there.
25:48Could have easily have been fought for Brazil.
25:50He struck that so well.
25:52His connection was brilliant.
25:55Once again, it's Scott McKenna in the way.
25:59Makes himself really big.
26:23We're still looking for another goal here.
26:27Reminder, the end of the group stage
26:29if teams are leveled, a tie-break.
26:31The first tie-break is the head-to-head
26:32in the matches, the match between the two teams involved.
26:36Which, of course, it was a 1-1 draw
26:38between Brazil and Morocco.
26:39Then it will go to the overall goal difference,
26:42goal scored, and so on.
26:44So Brazil with the advantage over Morocco.
26:50Morocco 3-2 up against Haiti.
26:56It's a 1-1 draw, and then it's a 1-1 draw.
27:00Findy Curtis, I think, was going to come on shortly
27:02for Scotland.
27:04Kimarais.
27:06Cricket, the challenge by Lewis Ferguson.
27:09Yeah, Scotland just have to be really careful.
27:10These latter stages of the game
27:11don't allow the game to really get away from them,
27:15but stay focused.
27:20Looks like Shea Adams will get
27:22his 50th cap tonight as well.
27:25Set to come on for the last couple of minutes.
27:28Hendrik.
27:29He'll take the return.
27:32Lightning quick.
27:34Fabinho.
27:38Ganesha's junior been waiting patiently
27:40on the far side.
27:41Here he is.
27:42Neymar just turns off the ball.
27:49McGinn.
27:57Kenny McLean and Bruno Kimarais
27:59they're just colliding with each other.
28:01Ryan Christie.
28:05McGinn ahead of him on the near side.
28:09Shankland.
28:13Ferguson.
28:16Two more minutes plus added time.
28:23Scotland as it stands.
28:27Set to lose by a three-goal margin.
28:35Decent ball from McGinn.
28:37And that's on the far side.
28:48Morocco.
28:494-2 up on Haiti now.
28:53In the other match in this group.
28:55So, interesting finish.
28:57Well, plenty of goals.
28:58Plenty of goals in both games.
29:01Who knows?
29:02We might not be done yet
29:04because Brazil with a free kick
29:06on the far side.
29:09Ryan Christie there.
29:11Doing what he can to prevent
29:12Brazil having another opportunity
29:13to get a ball in the box.
29:14Danger area.
29:17It's cost him a yellow card.
29:36Neymar to take it.
29:38And to whip that one in invitingly.
29:43Here he is again.
29:45Trying to roll back the years
29:46but it's
29:47it's comfortable for Angus Gunn.
29:51Lewis Ferguson for Scotland.
29:53Is there to be
29:54a late opportunity?
29:56Well, there might still be
29:57because they do have another corner.
30:01And late on it's
30:03for Scotland fans
30:03making the noise
30:04inside the stadium
30:05in support of their team.
30:09Whether this is
30:11the end of their
30:12World Cup adventure
30:13or not
30:14it's been some trip
30:16for thousands of people.
30:18And what an impact
30:20they've made
30:20on this World Cup.
30:22Alison just about
30:24gets there.
30:27Still Scotland
30:28straining.
30:29Trying to find a way
30:30through McTominay.
30:31Can't get it past Alison.
30:33Good save.
30:34Yeah, another excellent save
30:36from Alison.
30:36McTominay doesn't quite
30:38get the connection
30:39he wanted.
30:40It was a difficult chance
30:41but Alison was really
30:42quick to react.
30:43Here comes Vinny Jr.
30:44Is this his last chance
30:45to score a hat-trick
30:47here in this match today?
30:48While Scotland
30:48getting bodies back
30:49behind the ball.
30:50Support arriving.
30:51Neymar has it.
30:52Back into Vinny Jr.
30:53Big block
30:54made by Curtis.
30:57Those chances
30:58just haven't fallen
30:59for Scotland
30:59have they?
31:00If they've been
31:01in a good enough
31:02direction
31:02it's been Alison
31:03who's put off
31:04some brilliant saves.
31:06Guimaraj
31:07Vinny Jr.
31:08looking to try
31:09and tee it up.
31:11Completely surrounded
31:11and Scotland
31:13will have a free kick.
31:16We've had a minimum
31:17of six additional minutes
31:18so we're going to have
31:19to wait a bit longer
31:19to see a Brazilian player
31:21score a hat-trick
31:21at the World Cup finals
31:22I think.
31:23It hasn't happened
31:24since 1958
31:26in the semi-final
31:27when Pelé managed it.
31:29At half-time
31:30he'd have fancied
31:31Vinny Jr.'s chances
31:33but he won't worry
31:34about that too much.
31:35It's a comfortable
31:373-0 win
31:37for Brazil
31:38on the night.
