The Scots, making their first appearance in the tournament since 1998, earned their first World Cup victory since 1990, when they beat Sweden 2-1.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

Group favorites Brazil and Morocco played to a 1-1 draw earlier in the day, putting Scotland at the top of the group standings.<\/p>\n

Haiti, whose only other World Cup appearance was in West Germany in 1974, is still in search of its first World Cup point.<\/p>\n

McGinn\u2019s goal came off a rebound from Che Adams\u2019 miss in the box that bounced off Placide and into open space. McGinn\u2019s shot ricocheted off a defender from 13 yards out.<\/p>\n

Scotland\u2019s Tartan Army supporters were out en masse, creating a wave of red inside a filled in Gillette Stadium, located about 30 miles outside Boston.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

Scotland came close to a goal in the 17th minute when captain Scott McTominay got loose and fired a shot that clipped the top of the post.<\/p>\n

Haiti had its best opportunities in the second half. In the 74th minute, Ruben Providence sent a cross in to Wilson Isidor, but the forward came up empty on his attempt to direct the ball in.<\/p>\n

Then in the 84th, Frantzdy Pierrot\u2019s header went wide of the left side.<\/p>\n

Scotland stays in town to play Morocco at Gillette Stadium on Friday. Haiti will next face Brazil on Friday in Philadelphia.<\/p>\n
