John McGinn was the hero in Boston as Scotland finally ended their 36-year wait for a World Cup victory with a gritty 1-0 win over Haiti. The Aston Villa star remains the talisman for Steve Clarke’s side, netting the decisive goal to put the Scots in pole position in Group C - and revealing the pre-match vow that fueled his fearless performance.

Scotland waited 28 years for this. Haiti waited five decades. In a match between two sides desperate to make their World Cup return count, John McGinn provided the moment that mattered, turning a lucky bounce into the lone goal as the Tartan Army escaped Boston Stadium with a 1-0 win, Scotland’s first victory at the tournament since Italia ’90.
