After scoring the goal against Haiti which gave Scotland their first World Cup win since 1990, John McGinn says the squad are not getting ahead of themselves as they meet Morocco on Friday.
The Aston Villa midfielder says the hurt of underperforming at Euro 2024 still hurts the squad, and their focus is on not repeating those performances in Garmany.
Scotland are aiming to reach the knockout stages at a major finals for the first time.
"There is a business feel in the camp," McGinn said.
"We were gutted after Germany [Euro 2024]. I know the fans had a great experience, just being back at a major tournament with fans.
"But we left with an emptiness and feeling of could we have done x, y or z differently.
"What we did now by winning the [qualifying] group was we had time to prepare properly and in the best possible way.
"We've left no stone unturned and the staff have been first class. The players are focussed on doing the job in hand.
"If we do achieve something special we will celebrate it, but until that is achieved we will purely be on business here."
