Humanity can breathe a sigh of relief: aliens did not show up to a mass abduction during Scotland's World Cup clash against Brazil in Miami. But the Tartan Army, facing a 3-0 defeat and a nervous wait on qualification, might have wished they had.
The frightening prospect was first raised by spiritualist Anatercia da Silva Goncalves, known as Vo Bahiana, who posted a tearful video on social media. “I dreamed again about aliens invading the soccer field in Miami,” she said, her voice cracking. “I clearly saw the players being carried off by the first ship that arrived. I was inside that ship. When the ship rose, the mothership arrived, a much larger ship, and took in thousands of people from the soccer field." She described "so much screaming, so much crying, so many tears, suffering. I am very terrified because it is the second time I am dreaming about this. And they are saying that on the 24th, something very bad is about to happen at this game, at this soccer field in Miami, in the United States.”
“Spiritualist predicted alien abduction at Scotland vs Brazil; no aliens came, but Scotland lost 3-0 and face anxious wait.”
Surprisingly, the prediction did not prove true. Instead, the Scots put in a catastrophic performance. A double from Brazil star Vinicius Jr and a second-half Matheus Cunha goal condemned Scotland to a 3-0 loss, leaving them sweating on qualification from the group stage. The eight best third-placed teams progress to the last 32 based on points, goal difference, goals scored, fair-play status, and Fifa ranking. Fans now face days of uncertainty before knowing their fate.
