It's a heartbreaker, isn't it?

no consolation it's Brazil 2 Scotland 1 because it's one thing to lose to Brazil if they're scoring kind of Brazil like goals but that that's an ugly goal it wasn't quite like the goals they got in 1982 against us we got the toe poke it was just yeah because it took so long to go into the net I remember Henry going back and he didn't quite make it it was horrific it was just the last type of there's no good own goal let's be honest

It was just... There was nothing you could do.

You kind of think, you know, we might have a wee chance.

Hear ball-by-ball coverage of the biggest competitions on the domestic and international circuits.

It's a ball cricket and it's the huge one.

Listen on BBC Sounds.

And so off the back of that result, which was disappointing, but came away with a lot of credit, then went into the Norway game.

Where were you watching that?

What were you and Rod up to?

there was a Scotsman at the top of it Bordeaux was a highlight of the the three venues Bordeaux was by far Bordeaux it was about five days yeah of Scottish and Norwegian fans in a tented village yeah and the French the French were there marching around the streets yeah marching together and it

That one-all draw, although a little bit disappointing because we probably could have won it.

I think the feeling was that you would go on and then beat Morocco and you just needed Brazil to get a result against Norway and then you're out of the group.

And I think there was genuine optimism that was going to happen.

you know go and get the job done against Morocco in those days it wasn't quite the African Cup of Nations so I think we kind of just thought Morocco we're in here I think underestimated them and had a player sent off so I think there was the Scottish FA were handing out leaflets weren't they of saying this is how you get to Marseille for the first knockout game yeah they were giving you I remember getting handed this thing this is how you get in touch now we were due to fly back the next day so you were kind of thinking

what are you going to do here?

And we're handing out this how to contact for the tickets for the Saturday in Marseille if we go through.

And the goals were terrible, Colin Henry, Jim Leighton.

Normally guys were 100% reliable.

They just didn't have good nights.
