Scottish Football Podcast - Respect Brazil or go for It? Scotland’s big World Cup call - plus what if Messi played in the SPFL?
Scotland head into a huge FIFA World Cup clash with Brazil knowing qualification is still within reach - but are they doing enough to grab it? Kenny Macintyre is joined by Kris Doolan and John Walker to pick apart the Morocco performance, the lack of attacking threat, and whether Scotland are showing Brazil too much respect.
With Scott McTominay covering more ground than any other player in the World Cup but is it often too far from goal? How can we unlock Scotland’s biggest weapon?

Plus, could Lionel Messi cut it in the Scottish leagues?
