Scotland Fans Have Decided To Support Ukraine Tonight And Even Have Flags Up Around The Country

 

Scotland fans have decided to support Ukraine in their Euro 2020 quarter-final against England this evening.

Steve Clarke’s side were in Group D alongside England but were eliminated from the tournament after coming bottom.

Despite that, their disdain for England hasn’t gone away and they’re hoping their bitter rivals are eliminated on Saturday evening.

England take on Ukraine with a semi-final spot against one of Denmark or the Czech Republic up for grabs.

Around Scotland, fans have put Ukrainian flags up to give Andriy Shevchenko and his team extra motivation.

Some on social media have also chosen to put the Ukrainian flag in their display name so everyone knows where they stand.

The Three Lions are yet to concede at this summer’s tournament and have kept four clean sheets so far.

A 2-0 win over Germany on Tuesday evening buoyed the nation and fans are optimistic of going far.

However, Ukraine will be no pushovers and they battled to a 2-1 win over Sweden in extra-time in their last-16 clash.

Speaking in a press conference, manager Shevchenko said: “England are a great team, they have a deep bench, an outstanding coaching staff and we are fully aware how tough this game is going to be.

“I saw all their three group matches, not today’s win over Germany because we had to prepare for our own game with Sweden.

“They are incredibly difficult to score against but their strength shouldn’t scare us.”

The former AC Milan forward added: “It should motivate us because everything is possible in football as in life and we will play our hearts out to give our fans even more to cheer about.”
