    Do they:

    Lose this game?

    Win / draw this game then lose to Hungary?

    Lose to Hungary anyway?

    Do both?

    Come up with another cunning plan (somehow involving tragedy and tartan)?

    Bizarre answers welcome because they'll manage it somehow or other.

    Doesn’t really matter. Like England they have a team that can qualify yet do nothing beyond it.

    That will ultimately be true for all but one team.

    You were nearly well on the way to being correct there.

    Shocking defending. At least the same defenders can't do that again.

    Right - failing gloriously to qualify starts with the post being hit.

    They get cancelled by English snowflakes who don’t understand why they won’t cheer for them?

    Far as I can see if this ends up a draw, then Swiss have to lose next with the Germans. Scotland will need a big win against Hungary.

    Yep, because England did nothing after the group stage at the last Euros.

    Late Callum Styles overhead kick is defected in off Nicola Sturgeon's left bosom to give Hungary an equiliser and deny Scotland a passage to the last 16 :p

    Lets be reight about Scotland. Switzerland had two goals ruled out. Scotland offered little going forward and will have to score v Hungary and hope Germany arse hole Switzerland to go through as a fastest loser.

    I thought they played really well as it goes.

    If they beat Hungary they will go through, irrespective of the result of the other games. I’m not convinced they will, but a chip and a chair and all that.

    Gi o'er! After the Swiss missed that golden chance, Scotland looked the only side likely to score. Very unlucky when they hit the post. They're easily capable of beating Hungary if they play like that on Sunday.
