Jamessm238 Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 (edited) I’ve just realised this. If Finland beat Belgium tonight and Russia lose then we will be playing against Finland in Sevilla in the Round of 16, granted the third place team from Spain’s group is one of the best. Due to the fact Finland will finish above Belgium on H2H Edited June 21, 2021 by Jamessm238 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scotlad Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 1-0 Denmark. Potentially good news for us (I think). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the Denmark v Russia score stays the same and Belgium win, then someone will definitely qualify from that group with just 3 points!

Caledonian Craig Posted June 21, 2021 Author Share Posted June 21, 2021 Well hopefully things stay as they are. At least we will know for sure a win of any sort tomorrow will do us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When we win tomorrow, we need to hope that the third place teams in groups E and F each finish with at least four points (assuming the group B results stay as they currently are at half time). If that happens, the third place teams from groups A, D, E & F would go through, meaning we play at Hampden. Once we win the second round match at Hampden, we then head to Rome for the quarter final, before playing the semi and final at Wembley. The open top bus victory parade through Glasgow will be on Monday 12 July. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TDYER63 Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 Belgium Finland game is pretty pish, only watching it as is important. Hopefully Finland succumb to the pressure in the second half but they are defending well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Denmark game is just as important, and is a decent game in front of a great crowd 👍🏼 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Due to the fact Finland will finish above Belgium on H2H I just logged on to post this. I think Denmark would need to put a few on Russia to make sure, as they’d need to finish above anyone else who finishes third on 3 points.

exile Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 As I understand it, if Denmark win by enough, they could go through in second if Finland lose. So they will have a real incentive to keep scoring and make the win secure, not settle for 1-0, as 3rd place on 3 points would be a limited chance.

TDYER63 Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 2 hours ago, exile said: I can see both sides, half empty and half full. For those taking the field of play of course you have to be positive and believe you can win, for whatever reason, because you beat them before, because your side is on the up, because you have home advantage. But as fans working out our chances based on permutations of other teams' scores, it's reasonable to be analytic about it, and add the probability of Scotland winning as one of the variables. If we're (say) twice as likely to go through with a 2-0 compared to 1-0, due to other group results, it's reasonable also to consider that we could be half as likely to actually win 2-0 as 1-0... I totally get your reasoning, it just made me laugh as everyone is scrabbling about with their excel spreadsheets trying to work out possible scenarios within the other groups and you state, quite rightly, the most difficult scenario of all is probably us winning 😊 It must be shit supporting Italy , France and Germany and never having this excitement 😁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
