Scotland coach Steve Clarke fears his team ‘probably going home’ after Brazil World Cup loss

Scotland have been eliminated from the World Cup following their 3-0 defeat to Brazil, which ultimately sealed their fate.
Their exit was confirmed after a series of unfavourable results in other group matches, notably Ghana’s loss to Croatia.
On the pitch, Scotland’s tournament was forgettable, with a 1-0 win over Haiti followed by 1-0 and 3-0 losses to Morocco and Brazil.
The team failed to offer enough threat in any of their three performances, leading to their early departure from the competition.
This continues Scotland’s run of failing to progress beyond the group stages of a major tournament, despite the World Cup’s expansion.
