World Cup fever has fully engulfed the Greater Boston area.
Gillette Stadium (which, for sponsorship reasons, will be known as “Boston Stadium” for the duration of the tournament) hosted its second of seven matches on Tuesday, June 16, in which Norway scored a 4-1 win over Iraq led by a brace from tournament debutant Erling Haaland. Now, the third match awaits as Scotland prepares to take on Morocco at 6 p.m. on Friday, June 19 in their respective second of three Group C matches.
The Scots, playing in their second straight match in Foxboro, currently top Group C with 3 points and a +1 goal differential following a 1-0 win over Haiti on June 13. The Atlas Lions, meanwhile, are joint second in the group with Brazil with a point each following a 1-1 draw between the two on the same day down at the New York New Jersey Stadium (MetLife Stadium). A Scotland win combined with a loss for the Seleção against Haiti would see the Scots win the group, while a Scotland loss combined with a Brazil win would see the five-time World Cup champions overtake top spot and Morocco take second. If that’s the result, or if either or both sides draw, the Brazil-Scotland showdown on June 24 at Miami Stadium (Hard Rock Stadium) will determine who wins Group C.
With the Tartan Army already showcasing its vocal (and instrumental) strength, and the Atlas Lions ready to roar, here’s how you can still follow the action if you can’t make it to Foxboro.
