I hope, like me, you're watching the Scotland vs Morocco match! It's not off to a great start for me of course, with Morocco scoring the fastest goal of the tournament so far! It was a great goal though! ⚽
While we wait and see happens next, you can practise your reading skills and learn some fun facts about Scotland in this video! Let us know in the comments which one you found most surprising!

Do you have an accent? Perhaps you think you don't. But our expert doesn't agree... Watch this video to find out why.
How do you feel about your accent when you speak English? Tell us in the comments!
We believe that every accent tells a story. There's no single 'right' way to sound - your accent is not something to fix or to hide, it's a record of where you're from and who you are. Do you agree?
