Feb 15 2012 03:31 PM | Admin5 in Tartan Army News
At last, we are delighted to announce an away match against the USA at the end of the season on 26 May 2012.
The match will take place at the home of the NFL team the Jacksonville Jaguars, in Florida.
Craig Levein said: “Following the match against Slovenia in February, this will provide another opportunity to get the group together ahead of the World Cup 2014 Qualifiers in September. We will have an extended period together in May, with a training camp in the USA prior to the match on the 26th, which is very important as we prepare for the qualifiers. We’re all looking forward to this match, which gives us a chance to test ourselves against a nation that is emerging as one of the top sides in world football.”
The teams last met on U.S. soil ahead of the 1998 FIFA World Cup, drawing 0-0 on May 30, 1998, in Washington, D.C.
