Group A: Brazil 3 Morocco 0

Goals: Ronaldo 9th; Rivaldo 45th; Bebeto 50th
Bookings: Brazil: Sampaio 36th; Baiano 87th; Morocco: Hadda 32nd; Chiba 64th;
90 Minutes In 30 Words: From the first goal in the ninth minute, the result was never in doubt. There was skill and entertainment in abundance 8211; it was just like watching Brazil.
Boy Done Good: Cafu at wing-back. Many of Brazil8217;s best moments stemmed from his right foot.
Two Left Feet: Edmundo. He came on for the last 20 minutes and will be wishing he hadn8217;t.
Magic Moment: Ronaldo8217;s side-step that led to Brazil8217;s third goal.
Mr Sitter: Ronaldo fired wide from 12 yards out in the 57th minute.
Shiver The Timbers: The woodwork, like the Brazilian goalie, had a peaceful night.
Cheered: Edmundo8217;s entrance 8211; Brazilian fans rose to him as England8217;s did to Owen.
Jeered: Edmundo again, who took no time to show why he wasn8217;t in the startingline-up.
Turning Point: Ronaldo8217;s goal in the ninth minute.
Ref-er-ee!: Curiously left his card in his pocket after Chiba left his studs in Ronaldo.

Brazil: quot;The odds may not be great, but Brazil look a safe bet for the Cupquot;
Morocco: quot;Chin up fellas, we8217;ve got Scotland next.quot;

Group A: Norway 1 Scotland 1

Goals: Norway: Havard Flo 46th; Scotland: Burley 67th
Bookings: Norway: Rekdal 54th; Berg 59th; Scotland: Durie 24th; Jackson 56th
90 Minutes In 30 Words: Defeat would have meant quot;au revoirquot; for Scotland so this was a well-deserved, battling draw after they had lost the initiative 8211; Havard Flo caught everyone napping at the start of the second half to give Norway a frightening lead.
Boy Done Good: Craig Burley 8211; with Group A death looming, his heroic equaliser has given Scotland a chance to atone for their poor World Cup record to date.
Two Left Feet: The lanky, over-rated Tore Andre Flo didlittle all game, probably because he was intimidated by Colin Hendry. A useless hoof towards the end of the first half sticks in the memory.
Magic Moment: Burley8217;s lob to score 8211; as delicate and controlled as anything that Jurgen Klinsmann could muster 8211; was outstanding.
Mr Sitter: Christian Dailly misguided a pretty straight forward header with only four minutes on the clock.
Turning Point: Norway8217;s goal had Scotland booking taxis for the airport 8211; Burley made the cancellation.
Ref-er-ee!: It was an unpunished foul that led to Havard Flo8217;s opener but Mr Vagner generally did his best to keep the game moving.

Norway: quot;What did you say his name was? Ronaldo?quot;
