It's safe to say England 's romp to Euro 2020 isn't going to plan for pundits south of the border.
We were told it was coming home, but Gareth Southgate was lucky to leave Wembley with a point after a toothless display against Scotland.
There was plenty of high praise for the English from their own pundits after the narrow win over Croatia, but there has been an abrupt change of tone since last night.
Steve Clarke 's men had been written off entirely by the big names with whopping scorelines predicted against the Auld Enemy.
However, that wasn't the case and Scotland held firm and in truth Southgate's men were lucky to leave with a point.
That makes Rio Ferdinand's pre-match prediction look even more misguided.
The confident former Manchester United man insisted he would be completely relaxed watching the game, though it's doubtful that would have been the case when Lyndon Dykes ' shot was cleared off the line.
Or when Stephen O'Donnell's volley was barely kept out by Jordan Pickford.
Or as Che Adams went within inches of the post from the tight angle and England somehow held on to a clean sheet.
Ferdinand told the BBC pre-match: "It’s a huge game. I can’t wait. Nothing to fear, and we will go down and get our seat and watch it. Looking forward to it.
"England are going to win. I can’t see anything else, I’m telling you. I’ve never been this confident about a game in a major championship."
