00:00Aston Villa, Liverpool and Tottenham fans could all be keeping a close eye on Scotland's World Cup fate, with captain
00:08John McGinn and Andy Robertson facing the prospect of an early tournament exit.
00:15Scotland's damaging 3-0 defeat to Brazil has left their hopes of reaching the knockout stages hanging by just a
00:23thread, with both senior stars admitting qualification now looks unlikely.
00:28Villa midfielder John McGinn, one of Scotland's most influential players under Steve Clarke, acknowledged the nation's chances of progressing are
00:38slim following the defeat.
00:40Meanwhile, former Liverpool captain and Anfield favourite Robertson, who established himself as a club legend during a trophy-laden spell
00:49on Merseyside before joining Tottenham Hotspur this summer, was forced off at half-time against Brazil and was later pictured
00:57with an eye strapping on his ankle, raising concerns over fitness for Tottenham Hotspur fans.
01:03For Premier League fans, the story carries extra significance.
01:08McGinn remains a key figure at Villa Park, while Andy Robertson's status as a Liverpool great and current Spurs defender
01:15ensures he remains one of Scotland's highest-profile players.
01:20An early Scotland exit would be a bitter end to a difficult World Cup campaign for two of the country's
01:27biggest footballing names.
