Scotland v Ukraine World Cup play-off semi-final rescheduled for 1 June

Scotland's World Cup play-off semi-final with Ukraine has been rescheduled for 1 June, with the winner playing Wales in the final four days later.

The Hampden semi was due to be played on 24 March but Ukraine asked Fifa to postpone the tie following Russia's invasion of the country.

Wales beat Austria to progress to the final, which takes place in Cardiff.

Scotland, Ukraine or Wales will face England, Iran and USA in the Qatar World Cup later this year.

The tournament takes place from 21 November to 18 December.

Wales' World Cup play-off final set for 5 June

Although I think Scotland are the better of the 2 teams and will have the much larger and more vocal away support, I’d much prefer to play them over Ukraine in the final. Every neutral will be backing them to qualify and the pressure on our players shoulders will be immense :oops:

Yes unfortunately I'm afraid you are correct. Remember Denmark last year. But by the same reasoning, If Scotland win will everyone be supporting us?

Doubt it. Most people won’t turn on Scotland for beating Ukraine they’ll just go back to being neutrals.

All the other play-offs have been 7.45pm, can only assume this will be the same.

The announcement says that kick off times will be confirmed in due course.

Hope it's not in the evening that's all.

Could be a nightmare for any Wrexham fans aswell- the National league play off final is the same date.

We haven't been invaded by a superpower though have we , so let's not feel too hard done by.

At least the final is the second game of 5 and not the fifth.

Romanisation. The Romans occupied the whole of the area now known as Wales, where they built Roman roads and castra, mined gold at Luentinum and conducted commerce, but their interest in the area was limited because of the difficult geography and shortage of flat agricultural land.

Being a Wednesday, it makes sense to be a 7:45 pm (or close to that) :thumbright:

Sky will dictate kick off time and the FAW will bow to them as usual
