Scotland scrap Switzerland friendly as Euro 2024 draw means battle plans must be kept under wraps

dailyrecord.co.uk

Scotland have been forced to ditch plans for a friendly against Switzerland after drawing them at Euro 2024. Steve Clarke had planned to take on the Swiss in preparation for the tournament in Germany.

But when the countries were selected together in Group A, along with Germany and Hungary - the SFA had to abandon that idea.

Clarke will now look for alternative opposition, with two warm-up games in March and another two in June. Scotland will kick off the tournament in Munich against the hosts on June 14.

But SFA chief Ian Maxwell says the work starts now in terms of securing a training base for Clarke’s side - as well as the friendly fixtures.
