Substitutions: Tosh McKinlay for McNamara (54 mn - Injury) and Booth for Durie (83 mn)
Incident: Burley (53 mn) was sent off with a straight red after tackling Morocco's Bassir from behind when the Moroccan was about to start a counter attack
Notes: Tosh McKinlay played as LWB, this relocated Dailly as RWB
The dismissal of Burley meant Lambert and Collins were placed together as central midfielders in order to maintain the stability of the formation
Both teams needed to win this game and to hope Norway drew or lost their final group stage game against Brazil in order to qualify for the Knockout Stage of the competition, however Scotland was inflicted a 0-3 defeat by Morocco and were eliminated from the World Cup
