Scots Can Make Any Game Difficult: Robertson Rallies Squad For Morocco Clash With Knockout Spot At Stake
FIFA World Cup: Scotland captain Andy Robertson declared that players and coaching staff have not "shied away" from what is at stake as the nation is aiming to qualify for the FIFA World Cup knockout stage for the first time when they take on Morocco at Boston Stadium on Saturday (IST).
Eight Scottish squads have previously travelled to the FIFA World Cup with big dreams of making deep runs, only to be eliminated in the group stage. Victory over Morocco on Saturday, however, will ensure a place in the knockouts for the Scots, who go into the game top of Group C after a 1-0 opening-game win over Haiti.
“We want to be the first team to be able to qualify for the knockouts for our country. We’re now playing against one of the best teams in the world, but we believe we can make any game difficult. If we can do that and put in our best performance, then I believe we can get what we want and hopefully be the ones that achieve that history," Robertson said in a pre-match presser.
