John McGinn’s first-half goal sealed victory for Scotland in their World Cup opener in Boston – their first victory in the tournament since 1990.
BBC Sport Scotland’s Andy Burke assessed how the players performed – and you can see how BBC Sport readers rated them at the bottom of the page too.
Angus Gunn – Very fortunate not to concede after spilling a fairly routine shot. Otherwise, Haiti’s erratic finishing meant he was not overly tested. 6
Aaron Hickey – Lapse in concentration early on almost cost Scotland dear, but one vital intervention to deny Ruben Providence. 6
Jack Hendry – Great bit of defending to prevent Wilson Isidor from heading home. Largely restricted Haiti to efforts from long range. 7
Grant Hanley – Solid display from the big centre back. Great ball over the top to Adams which led to McGinn’s goal. 7
Andy Robertson – Some outstanding deliveries from wide on the left could have brought more goals. Linked-up well with McGinn. 7
Ben Gannon-Doak – Pace and directness caused alarm bells in Haiti backline every time he got the ball. Final delivery can still frustrate, but he has become Scotland’s chief creative force. 9
Scott McTominay – Unlucky to see a curling effort come crashing off a post. Robbed of possession in dangerous areas on a couple of occasions. Short of his imperious best. 6
Lewis Ferguson – Anticipated and cut out the danger on numerous occasions as the Haitians broke at pace. 8
John McGinn – Scored Scotland’s first goal at a men’s World Cup since Craig Burley’s strike against Norway at France ’98. Missed a huge chance for a second. 8
Lawrence Shankland – Did his defensive work, but struggled to get into the game. Unable to find the sort of form in his goalscoring displays in the warm-up games against Curacao and Bolivia. 6
Che Adams – Great run and exquisite first touch in build-up to McGinn’s opener. Partnership with Shankland did not quite click. 6
Nathan Patterson (75 mins) – One good intervention to halt a Haiti attack. 6
Lyndon Dykes (75 mins) – Gave Scotland an aerial option but most of the play was down the other end during his time on the pitch. 5
Ryan Christie (75 mins) – Little impact as Haiti finished the stronger side. 5
Kenny McLean (82 mins) – Perhaps lucky to receive only a yellow card for a reckless tackle in stoppage time. 5
Finlay Curtis (82 mins) – Used his pace to exploit gaps in the Haiti defence in closing stages. 6
