June 27Jun 27 Scotland wishlist for tonight for maximum hope and then heartbreak:Croatia unexpectedly lose to Ghana by 3 goals, keeping Scotland just about in the running as we move into midnight UK time.Uzbekistan gain a point or win narrowly, meaning that the third place from Group K doesn't advance.Austria pay their debt to Algeria by resummoning the spirit of Gijón and play an even worse game than Australia vs Paraguay to put both through into the knockouts, leaving Scotland in 9th in the list of 3rd-placers. As destiny demands.
