Ireland v Scotland RECAP | World Cup

READERS’ FORUM: Welcome to our live coverage of the World Cup Pool B match between Ireland and Scotland at Stade de France in Saint-Denis.

One the qualification maths, ignore the bizarre conspiracy theories and focus on the sums, because they’re difficult enough.

The simple bit to start: Ireland win and they top the pool, with South Africa also going through to the quarterfinals. But, if Scotland win, things start to get more complicated.

If Scotland win and deny Ireland a bonus point, Scotland go through on the head-to-head rule.
