McGinn on target as Scotland beat Haiti to go top of Group C | 2026 FIFA World Cup

2026 FIFA World Cup

Group C:

• Haiti 0-1 Scotland
• Brazil 1-1 Morocco

Scotland edged Haiti 1-0 at the Boston Stadium, Foxborough, to go top of Group C in the ongoing 2026 FIFA World Cup.

John McGinn was the hero with a first-half goal.

The 31-year-old Aston Villa midfielder scored off a heavily deflected ball as Scotland registered their first victory since 1990.

Efforts by the World Cup debutants, Haiti, to find the equaliser were futile.

Scotland is now top of Group C in a group that also has Brazil and African ambassadors Morocco.

Morocco held the five-time record winners Brazil to a one-all draw at the  New York New Jersey stadium.

Ismael Saibari opened the scoring in the 20th minute with a wonder loop before Vinicius Jose Paixo de Oliveira Junior equalised 10 minutes later.

Next Group C matches:

Scotland returns to action against Morocco on Saturday, 20th June 2026, at the Boston stadium in Foxborough.

On the same day, Brazil will face Haiti at the Philadelphia stadium.

Meanwhile, the FIFA World Cup 2026 continues on Sunday, 14th June 2026 as Germany tussles against Curacao in the Group E early kick-off at the Houston stadium.

Then, in Group F, the Netherlands will face Japan at the Dallas Stadium in Arlington.
