World Cup Play-off: Scotland v Ukraine postponed to June 1st … Winner to meet Wales on June 5th

World Cup Playoff: A new date has been set for Scotland’s postponed World Cup play-off semi-final against Ukraine, which will take place on Wednesday, June 1.

The winner will face Wales on Sunday, June 5, with both matches shown live on all sports channel.

The match was originally scheduled to take place on March 24 at Hampden Park, but it was postponed owing to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.

The winner of that matchup was scheduled to face Wales, who defeated Austria 2-1 in their semi-final, but that matchup was also postponed due to the weather.

Because of the postponements, Scotland has committed to hosting a friendly match against the loser of the Wales-Austria match on March 29. In Vienna, Steve Clarke’s team was held to a 2-2 draw.

Although Russia had been scheduled to participate in the World Cup play-offs, the country was kicked out of the competition as a result of its actions in Ukraine.

With that victory, Poland received an automatic berth into the route B final, where they defeated Sweden to secure their place in the World Cup in Qatar this winter.
