Demon Notes
- Scotland got the fantasy result, but the match was not comfortable. Haiti had 15 shots and the xG was level.
- McGinn is the headline. Eleven points from midfield and a good role is exactly why he is always annoying to ignore.
- Robertson and the cheap Scotland defenders paid off, but the clean sheet was not as safe as the scoreline makes it look.
- Haiti were better than the fantasy points. That matters for managers looking at their opponents next.
MD2 Fantasy Takeaway
McGinn is the Scotland attacker to respect. The defenders returned, but check the next opponent before chasing clean-sheet points.
