Scotland's elimination from World Cup confirmed

Scotland's journey in the World Cup has concluded with their elimination from the group stage. Despite a historic victory against Haiti, their first in 36 years, the team could not advance further.

The team's hopes were dashed following losses to Morocco and Brazil. Against Morocco, a second-minute strike proved decisive. The match against Brazil was particularly challenging, with Scotland conceding an early goal due to a defensive error in the penalty area. Vinicius Jr. capitalized on the mistake for the opener. Another defensive lapse before halftime allowed Vinicius Jr. to score again, making it 2-0. Brazil extended their lead in the second half with a goal from Matheus Cunha. Scotland's late efforts failed to change the outcome or improve their goal difference.

Scotland had qualified for the World Cup for the first time since 1998, having participated in the past two European Championships. Their memorable qualification came through a dramatic victory against Denmark. However, their performance in the tournament did not meet expectations, ending their World Cup aspirations.
