 | | With a delicious prospect of international fate in store at Hampden Park on Saturday, Maurice Malpas yesterday cast his mind back 17 years to that famous night of March 8, 1989 when Andy Roxburgh's Scotland defeated France 2-0, thus wrecking the French hopes while enhancing our own of qualifying for the 1990 World Cup. |
 | | That match and this coming Saturday's may be different in many ways, though one issue was and is pertinent to both: the chances of a Scotland team upsetting the odds by beating superior opponents. |
 | | Malpas, however, cautions against a similar approach, having watched the modern France at this summer's World Cup, as well as Scotland trying to regroup under Walter Smith. |
