[BBC]

Captain Andy Robertson says his squad will not "shy away" from the chance to make history by being the first Scotland squad to make it out a group stage at a major tournament.

One point against African champions Morocco would almost certainly do the job after their Group C opening win over Haiti.

"I try to not think about it because we've got such a tough task ahead of us," said Robertson.

"I don't think any of the lads and the coaching staff shy away from us wanting to be the first team to be able to do that for our country.

"We know how difficult that is going to be, were out playing against one of the best teams in the world but we believe we can make any game difficult and if we can do that, put in our best performance, then I believe we can get what we want and hopefully be the ones to achieve history."

Scotland's performance against the Boston Stadium was not barnstorming stuff despite the narrow victory.

And the left-back knows an increased showing will be needed.

"I've always thought every game is a big opportunity," said Robertson.

"I think Saturday was a really good result and got us the three points which we needed and now we are going into the next game looking for the same.

"We know what we want to try and create and what we want to try and do. We know we're going to need more, so we're looking forward to it."
