Scotland is set to play Ukraine in its bid to qualify for the 2022 Qatar World Cup.

The highly-anticipated match was put on hold back in February when Ukraine’s football authorities requested to postpone the game following Russia's invasion of the country.

Instead, the Scottish team played Poland in a friendly fundraising match for Ukraine, supporting their World Cup play-off opponents.

The Scottish Football Association announced that £10 from each ticket would go to UNICEF’s humanitarian response effort from the game.
