Now coach Gemmill, pictured, has urged his side to beat Indonesia with the same level of performance that defeated the Brazilians when a superb goal from Kilmarnock’s Greg Taylor sealed a shock 
1-0 victory.

Gemmill said: “Beating Brazil meant everything, but the aim was to go into the last game still with a chance of qualification 
and that is achievable 
now. It really helps us kick on.

“But it’s easy talking about it – they have to do it.

“They need to show that 
resilience and passion again.”
