The nephew of a Scotland supporter who died after travelling to watch the team at the World Cup has asked the Tartan Army to join in with a tribute during tomorrow night's game against Morocco.

Donny Strathie, 76, travelled from Falkirk to the United States in the hope of watching the national team perform at the finals for the first time in 28 years. Feeling unwell in his Boston hotel, Mr Strathie passed on Sunday, just hours after the 1-0 win over Haiti in the opening game.
