Oldsmobile-88
Very well known Exeweb poster
15th June 1974.
I remember watching this game on TV.With England shockingly failing to qualify for the 1974 World Cup.Their was huge interest in the Scottish participation in West Germany.
They had a very good team made up mostly from top flight teams in Division One of the Football League.
The Scots payed a high price ultimately for taking their foot off the gas in the 2nd half against a hapless Zaire team.
Zaire lost 9-0 to Yugoslavia in their next game.
Scotland were knocked out of the group stages by goal difference(one goal)
A poor by their historical standard Brazil progressed instead.
