scotland, out of the world cup in the group stages without a victory.cked out of the world cup is hard to stomach at the best of times, but doing it like this is very tight and going to sting. 3-0 up, it looked like they were flying and then they lost that lead and yes, they are going home. they be getting on a plane and out of the first world cup. the first: the first world cup. the first: the first half, struck in the box, perry did away but not far enough and there to get her first world cup goal. that is the first time that scotla nd goal. that is the first time that scotland women have been ahead in a world cup match and you could see how excited they were by that, how promising it seemed to be, but then into the second half, just 36 minutes and, caroline crossed and found ahead, who put it past the keeper, scott linford 2—0 and then everything seemed to be going so positively for them and then another goalfrom a set positively for them and then another goal from a set piece, that was the third one. leeann who headed across again, the keeper did ma

england again scotland is always special at again scotland is always special at a world cup.y —— it could scarcely have felt more important. england are one of the best in the world, scotland had never been better. but for a rivalry as old as this, it began in the most modern way. var cold upon to see a scottish handball. that was the evidence, and that was the result. nikita parris, perhaps fittingly, scoring in france. this was scotland's first at a world cup, and had it not been for goalkeeper lee alexander, it could have been well beyond your reach. but in a moment the mood changed, claire emslie scored. the first game is always the most difficult game, certain standards, and the players know that we have to keep meeting those standards, we cannot drop below those standards, and if we do we get second—half performances like we had. i wanted us to play like we did in the first half of the full match. we wa nt in the first half of the full match. we want to be here for the next 37 days, and to do that, every single one of us, myself included, have to keep driving standards

scotland and england play theirfinal games in group d at the women's world cup.nd are top of their group and can stay there with a draw againstjapan in nice, but it promises to be a nervy night for the scots in paris — they have to beat argentina. let's cross live to the parc de princes and speak to jane dougall who has been following the team in france. jane, two narrow defeats for scotland, they are going to have to go for it tonight? yes, a draw or a loss will not do, scotla nd yes, a draw or a loss will not do, scotland have to beat argentina and then they still have to rely on other results if they want a chance of getting through to the knockout stages. theirfirst of getting through to the knockout stages. their first match against england, it was understandable they might have played defensively, they lost 2—1 but i have seen them play far better than they played in the first half, and the second half they played much better and claire emms late got the first ever scotland goal ina late got the first ever scotland goal in a world cup and then against japan

she knows that scotland are the favourites, she knows there is no other option but a scotland victoryt staying here in france beyond the group stages. now, she also said that she had received words of encouragement from someone very special, sir alex ferguson. everyone knows sir alex, so i probably won't tell you every thing, because he did say that he was disappointed in some of the decisions of that have been made against us. he was very complimentary about the team. the determination, the stamina, and the togetherness, to finish so strongly in both games. he's watched both of them, he sent us a message before we came here. it's absolutely brilliant for myself, as a manager, and for him to contact me and also for the players, for him to pass on his best wishes, and he's going to be cheering at the game tomorrow night, so it's brilliant, great bit of support from an absolute legend. remember, it's two defeats from two for scotland so far, that defeat in nice to england and then the 2—1 defeat to japan in rennes. tomorrow night, 8pm uk time, scotland and argentina, scotland must win,

scotland have been playing very well.one nil, the only scottish squad to ever do that. and they very narrowly lost to the world number ones, the usa. so they have been playing well, and because england are ranked 17 places above them in the rankings, they are favourites. when it comes to the old enemy statistics go out the window, don't they? this sport has developed considerably, and it's very different to the last time the two sides match two years ago, scotla nd two sides match two years ago, scotland now have a fully fit squad, which they didn't, previously. they are something of an unknown entity. a little earlier i spoke tojo love, one of the most experienced members of the squad with 191 caps. this is her first world cup, of the squad with 191 caps. this is herfirst world cup, and she of the squad with 191 caps. this is her first world cup, and she says this suit scotland, being the underdog. in our opinion we don't have anything to lose. england will probably be feeling the pressure. the fact that they are favouri
