What a beautiful low angle winter sunshine at the start of the match in the Western part of Argentina at the foothill of the Andes. Fun fact: both teams and the referees are wearing socks of almost same color. I don't think it would work nowadays. Jorge Videla is watching at the stadium. It has been said he had not attended a football match in his life before this tournament. There has also been speculation about Netherlands losing this match on purpose to avoid Argentina and Brazil in the second round.

[@johnbuggy9121]

The Scots had some fine players from '74 to '82. It's just bizarre how they couldn't get out of the group stages. '74 they were very unlucky. '78, they underestimated Peru (and played woefully against Iran) and in '82 Alan Hansen ran into Willie Miller.

[@kadasrichard]

I always wondered why the Scots could never go far in the WC or the Euros. They had talented teams,many of them key players at home and at the First Division in England.

[@thevillaaston7811]

Too many duds in the squad from the Scottish League. Example: Look at the nightmare tournament that Stuart Kennedy had.

[@Lovelylove4everyone]

Danny McGrain and Gordon McQueen were injured which didn't help the defence.

Interesting fact: For several minutes, both goalkeepers were playing without gloves simultaneously. Scotland's Alan Rough kept goal bare-handed the whole match, and Dutch goalie Jongbloed didn't put his gloves on till the 15th minute in the first half.

[@stephenmacdonald76]

that's cause his hands where burned by all of Scotland shots

[@adronias]

The sad thing about watching Scotland take on, and outplay, one of the greatest teams of all time, a team whose total football took them to 2 world cup finals in a row, is knowing that a Scotland team today would never play this way. Needing to beat one of the best team in the world by 3 goals, todays Scotland would play for a 0-0 draw to bow out gracefully. I can't remember the last time I saw Scotland play with such craft and guile, we can't even do it against the weak teams nevermind the best

[@mjb4983]

Yes 74 and 78 teams incredible talents

[@paulbradshaw303]

Scotland had the squad to go deep into this tournament. Shame about the shambolic start vs Peru and Iran. This game showed they were better than their early results

[@paulbradshaw303]

@Andy Butler very much so , they had the players but selection in the early games and preparation was not optimised. Shame really

[@kevinstoneham1245]

The ref blew for time before 90 minutes were up.

[@LPCLASSICAL]

Such a shame - Scotland showed what might have been had they not fluffed to two opening games by beating really the best team in the competition. Drawing the 2nd game was really inexcusable.

[@GordonCaledonia]

*Asa Hartford* was a great player, underrated, he was tireless, always got stuck in, great on the ball, drove everyone forward. Played in a similar style to Archie Gemmell. Man City legend, though he only won a League Cup with them and another League Cup with Everton. He played a staggering 973 matches from 1967-1991 for clubs and country (50 caps for Scotland).

[@mervyncharter]

Villa fan, Yes i always wondered why Asa Hartford was so underrated. I thought he was a fabulous player. He`d be worth a hell of a lot of money in Today`s Football.

Il a toujours manqué un bon gardien de but aux écossais (excepté David Harvey en 74 )alors que les autres postes étaient bien pourvus. Etrange de voir Brandts et Robertson (très bon joueur) sur le banc. Dans quels clubs écossais les joueurs de cette équipe ont ils joué (je sais que Dalglish était du celtic) ?

[@wonjubhoy]

Alan Rough jouait pour Partick Thistle, Tam Forsyth jouait pour Rangers et Stuart Kennedy jouait pour Aberdeen. Les autres ecossais jouaient pour les equipes anglaises en 1978.

Not sure that the penalty Holland got was even a penalty as we didn't get a replay or a different angle. Never liked Alan Rough as a keeper as a kid .. & never changed my mind when watching the games back again. Weak link for Scotland. I don't think the Peru result was the disaster people think it was as Cubillas was possibly their greatest ever player. Iran was a fuckin nightmare for sure! Souness should've played, would like to have seen more of John Robertson from Notts Forest who went onto win European Cup the next 2 years at Forest & be one of most dangerous players in the world at that time.

[@thevillaaston7811]

Yea, Scotland were robbed.

[@LPCLASSICAL]

Scotland drawing with Iran really put them out - on par with the most embarrassing England debacles. Scotland generally lacked a quality keeper over the decades.

[@Kingstriker294]

The Dutch side of 88-92 was better than that 78 team,if cruyff had gone to Argentina instead of pulling out it would have been about even. Scotland on the other hand has seen a continual descent from that period,nowadays you are basically seeing a championship team level of quality.

[@adronias]

Scotland are a fucking embarrassment right now. We got the sweetest group ever in the world cup 2014 qualification, and we're bottom with zero wins out of five. Not only are we no longer producing quality players, but we can't even produce average players who can punch above their weight as a team (like we did for most of the 90's). We're pish at football, we've been dreadful at rugby for several years(tho this last 6 nations we performed alright), at least we've got Andy Murray...

[@billyb8356]

I'm a Scotland fan but don't rate this win. It's the classic example of a pyrrhic victory. Gemmill's goal is a classic, but everything is undone by Johnny Rep's screamer barely 3 minutes later. After that the Dutch basically stop playing for the final 20 minutes, suggesting they aren't caring about losing 3-2, but only about progression to the 2nd phase. It is essentially a Dutch victory. I'd rate the 1-0 win over Holland at Hampden in 2003 more highly. Yes it was a two legged tie and we were routed in the return game in Amsterdam, but we were gigantic underdogs ranked 80-something in the world, playing one of the world's best teams at the time. We had no right to win and we did. An individually famous result, and unlike the 78 game, where the Dutch were seemingly happy to lose 3-2, the team of 2003 battered our goal until the final minute but to no avail
