If you thought it was hard to get tickets for Premier League clashes, then you should try to get your hands on seats for top international matches. In many ways, the process for doing so is far more complex, and when it comes to major finals, the whole process enters a new level of difficulty that we wouldn’t wish on our worst enemies.
Millions enter what is effectively a lottery for major finals; this is how UEFA and FIFA traditionally run their initial ticket releases. Additionally, the first release tends to happen before the draw has even been made, with fans applying for tickets knowing only the date and location of a game and not the identity of the two teams, which is a little absurd.
This goes some way to show the interest in tickets, supporters so keen to attend a major finals tournament that they would do so without even knowing the two teams they are set to see in action.
At SeatPick, the situation is less complex, and your chances are far improved, indeed we can guarantee that our platforms offer fans the possibility of buying tickets to any game, from qualifiers to the latter stages of both the UEFA European Championship and the FIFA World Cup.
This is a guarantee we can make due to our alignment with hundreds of the most trusted ticket resellers, providing our users with the widest selection of tickets for every major football match, making it easier for fans to compare prices and purchase those that suit their budgets and schedules.
Scotland vs Ukraine UEFA Euros Tournament Record
Prior to Euro 2024, Scotland had successfully qualified for three UEFA European Championship finals, with the first of these being Euro 1992 in Sweden.
They had the misfortune of being paired in the same group as the Netherlands, Germany, and the CIS, nonetheless, Scotland did relatively well to lose narrowly to Holland before being undone by Germany and then beating the CIS 3-0 to end their involvement in the competition on a high.
Four years later, at Euro 96, they once again faced the Netherlands, drawing 0-0 before losing to hosts England. They finished their group with a 1-0 win over Switzerland and were only knocked out due to the number of goals Holland managed to score in their three games.
Euro 2020 saw a long-awaited return to the finals, where they managed to secure just a single point from their three group games, therefore continuing their record of never reaching the knockout stages in any finals tournament.
Ukraine have also managed to qualify for the finals on three occasions, those coming in three successive tournaments.
They were co-hosts at Euro 2012 and, as such, did not need to qualify, and their campaign began with a comeback win over Sweden with former AC Milan man Andriy Shevchenko scoring twice.
However, subsequent losses to France and England saw them eliminated.
At Euro 2016, they performed disastrously, losing all three of their group games without scoring a single goal.
Euro 2020, therefore, represented a real marked improvement. A solitary win over North Macedonia was enough to see them qualify from their group, and they then defeated Sweden in the Round of 16 before capitulating against England in the Quarter-Finals, a game that they lost 4-0 in Rome.
Scotland vs Ukraine Head-to-Head
The only campaign that saw Scotland face Ukraine in the UEFA European Championship came in the qualifying for Euro 2008.
On that occasion, Ukraine beat the Scots 2-0 in Kyiv before Scotland got their revenge the following year, with goals from Kenny Miller, Lee McCulloch, and James McFadden securing a 3-1 win at Hampden Park.
As it turned out, neither team made it to the finals in Austria and Switzerland, with Italy and France taking the top two spots in the qualifying group.
