Scotland end 28-year World Cup wait with winning start

Scotland marked their return to the FIFA World Cup after a 28-year absence with a hard-fought 1-0 victory over Haiti in their opening Group C match this afternoon.

Midfielder John McGinn proved to be the difference, scoring the lone goal of the match to hand Scotland a winning start to their World Cup campaign and three valuable points.

The victory was a memorable moment for the Scots, who are competing in the men's FIFA World Cup for the first time since 1998.

In other matches today, Qatar and Switzerland finished 1-1 while Brazil failed to break down a determined Moroccan side as they were held to a 1-1 draw.
