The clip of the fans uniting has warmed the hearts of people who were delighted to see their friendly interaction.
Scotland and Morocco fans have been partying together outside a pub in Boston just hours before the nations face off against each other in their second World Cup match.
Steve Clarke’s men stand on the brink of history as a win over Morocco at the Gillette Stadium tonight would get us out of Group C and qualifying for the next round.
Scotland’s win over Haiti means Andy Robertson and co stand just a point from guaranteeing knockout football for the first time ever.
A video being shared online shows both sets of fans lapping up the atmosphere together outside Hennessy’s Bar in the US host city, which has seen around 50,000 Scotland fans arrive in the last week.
Members of the Tartan Army could be seen passionately jumping up and down together in a huge crowd while chanting and waving their fists in the air.
Among them were groups of Moroccan fans who joined the party, waving their flags. The clip of the fans uniting was shared on Instagram and social media users were delighted to see their friendly interaction.
One commented: “Absolutely love this. So proud to be Scottish when I see this. It melts my heart. Well done, all.”
A second scribed: “Guys you need to visit Morocco in the summer! Welcome, Scottish people.”
A third chimed in: “I love how fun and beautifully respectful it’s been before and after the matches. It’s amazing.
“Scotland putting the world to rights.”
A fourth agreed: “This is what it’s all about,” while a fifth added: “You will always be welcome in Morocco.”
The Tartan Army out in Boston are urging the team to put the past behind us and get the result we need against Morocco tonight.
Before now, our national team have qualified for 12 major tournaments but never yet been able to get through the group.
The tens of thousands of foot soldiers who have made the long trip across the pond are now desperate to see us finally change that.
With the extended 48-team World Cup allowing the eight best third-placed team to get through, they reckon we have never had a better chance, and the feeling is we will get at least a point this evening.
Davy Bowman, a 51-year-old business analyst, from Irvine, told the Record: “No doubt about it, this group are getting out of this group.
“This is the difference between previous Scotland teams to this one. It’s like a club atmosphere the boys have got now… just like normal guys, but they are all very, very good at football. I think we will get the draw we need.”
