Scotland goalkeeper Craig Gordon is aiming for six points in their final two qualifiers against Belarus and Slovenia to keep alive his dream of playing at next year's FIFA World Cup. Hope remainsVictory in Norway combined with a hard-earned home [url=http://www.crownpointbeachhotel.com/test/form.php]cheap chicago bears jerseys[/url] draw against Group 5 leaders Italy last month, have given the Scots renewed hope of securing second place. However, the Heart of Midlothian FC custodian is warning against overconfidence as Walter Smith's team prepare to take on Belarus at Hampden Park on Saturday. Great expectations"There's a great expectation that comes with playing well but beating Belarus is not going to be easy," he told uefa.com. "They've got professional players in their ranks including Aleksandr Hleb. They are a very dangerous side, especially going forward, and their players will want to show they are better than their current position suggests. Slovenian ordeal"The second game against Slovenia [in Celje] will be tougher," he added. "Our away record hasn't been the best although we had a good result against Norway. We'll go into the match confident but it could be irrelevant if we don't get the right result against Belarus. We've got to concentrate on the first one and if the second game is win or bust then that's all the better for us." Solid trioTogether with Hearts team-mates Steven Pressley and Andy Webster, Gordon has formed a solid defensive trio which has given Scotland the best defensive record in the group with just six goals conceded. Their partnership has prompted comparisons with Jim Leighton, Alex McLeish and Willie Miller from the great Aberdeen FC side of the 1980s, and Gordon hopes the understanding forged at Tynecastle will continue to serve club and country in future years. Honourable mention"That was a great trio and if Andy, 'Elvis' [Pressley] and [url=http://www.crownpointbeachhotel.com/test/form.php]miami dolphins jerseys[/url] myself can get anywhere near that level of performance we will be doing a great job for our club and country," he said. "It's flattering to be compared with one of the best defensive units in the history of Scottish football and hopefully we've got a long time together yet which can only be good for Hearts and for Scotland." Unbeaten startFollowing their unbeaten start to the Premier League season, Hearts are being touted as potential Scottish champions, and while Gordon is keen to play down such talk, the 22-year-old admits the prospect of appearing in the UEFA Champions League has crossed his [url=http://www.mcfiam.org/forms/]cheap houston texans jerseys[/url] mind. Title ambitions"It would be a dream come true for a club like Hearts to play on that stage," he said. [url=http://www.wecanindia.org/affected.html]cheap washington redskins jerseys[/url] "It's a bit early to be talking about that after nine games, but if we are still in the same position going into the new year, we would be in with a chance." Germany callingFor the moment, though, Gordon is concentrating on getting to Germany 2006 with Scotland. "It's every kid's dream to play in the World Cup and I'm no different," he said. "We've got the players and the organisation to deal with the top teams now, but first we have to win these two games and see where that takes us."
