Andy Robertson and Robert Lewandowski have thrown their support behind a fundraising friendly between Scotland and Poland at Hampden Park on Thursday, 24 March – with a £10 donation from each ticket sold supporting UNICEF’s humanitarian response in Ukraine.
The respective national team captains are encouraging football fans to come together to fill Hampden and raise crucial funds to support UNICEF’s emergency appeal.
The UNICEF emergency appeal raises essential funds to support families and their children within Ukraine, and those that have been displaced to neighbouring countries, but ensuring child health and protection services are sustained and families have clean water and nutritious food.
The match was arranged following FIFA’s decision to postpone the FIFA World Cup Play-Off Semi-Final against Ukraine due to the ongoing conflict, and the cancellation of Poland’s scheduled tie with Russia.
Steve Clarke will name his squad tomorrow following extensive talks between the Scottish FA and Polish FA to give the hastily arranged friendly a wider purpose.
Tickets will go on sale at 1pm on Tuesday, 15 March – exclusively to Scotland Supporters Club members – before going on general sale at 1pm on Thursday, 17 March.
For every ticket sold, £10 will be donated to UNICEF UK’s emergency appeal for Ukraine, and supporters will have the opportunity to make an additional donation if they wish during the ticket purchase process, with a special donate button on the web page directing to UNICEF UK’s appeal.
A sold-out Hampden would mobilise a significant six-figure contribution for UNICEF UK’s appeal for Ukraine. Organisers will announce additional ways in which supporters can get behind the fundraising in the build-up to the match.
Scotland Supporters Club members can purchase tickets from £5 for juniors and £20 for adult members from 1pm on Tuesday, 15 March.
Sales will then be opened up to the general public on Thursday, 17 March, with junior prices for individual matches from £5 and adult prices from £25.
