FIFA WC 2026: 'It Wasn't My Best Goal,' Says Scotland's McGinn
Goalscorer John McGinn: Goalscorer John McGinn admitted his match-winning strike may not have been his finest, but said he could not care less after helping the Scotland football team secure their first FIFA World Cup victory in 36 years with a 1-0 win over Haiti in Group C.
McGinn's deflected effort in the 29th minute proved enough to separate the sides at Boston Stadium as Scotland celebrated their first World Cup win since 1990 and their first appearance at the tournament since 1998.
"It wasn't my best of goals, but who cares?" McGinn said after the match. "It was all a bit surreal, to be honest. When it hit the back of the net, you could just see the Scotland fans in the stadium going wild. I don't think it's really sunk in yet, but it's just a great feeling," he said after the match.
