As England see out a 2-0 win that confirms their first-placed finish in the group with maximum points, Scotland’s players crumple to the pitch in Paris, where they’ve lost a three-goal lead and a potential place in the next round. The denouement in their match was farcical, with Argentina equalising through a retaken penalty and the referee then blowing the final whistle without adding on as much time as Scotland expected. What a bitter, perplexing way to go out. England, meanwhile, can have concerns about the scrappiness of some of their play but that’s small beer compared to Scotland’s woe.
90+3 min:Bonsegundo converts the retaken penalty to make it Scotland 3-3 Argentina! The Scots were three goals up and now they need to produce something even more freakish that what we’ve already seen to snatch a winner.
