  1. What has happened so far?

    Scotland lost 5-1 to Portugal in their opening game in Group D of the 2022 men's Uefa under-17 European Championship in Israel.

    They conceded in the opening 10 minutes and were trailing 3-0 at half-time. Celtic's Magnus Mackenzie pulled one back just after the hour mark before Portugal scored twice to end any hopes of a dramatic comeback.

    The other game in the group saw Sweden beat Denmark 2-1 to mean Scotland realistically needed to win both of their remaining games to progress to the knockout stages.

    Scotland fell to a 3-1 defeat against Denmark. Rory Wilson had equalised for the Scots but an own goal from Magnus Mackenzie and a third from Markus Jensen guaranteed victory for Denmark.

    Germany and Netherlands have already guaranteed their place in the next round with wins in their opening two matches.

  3. What are the U17 European Championships?

    Scotland are the only home nation’s representative in the men’s event. Coached by former Celtic and Wigan player Brian McLaughlin, the team has qualified for five previous European Championship finals, achieving its best result in 2014 when they got to the semi-finals.

    Exciting forward Ben Doak (recently signed by Liverpool) misses out on the tournament through injury. However, potential names to look out include Rangers’ Rory Wilson– who was named Man of the Match in the recent Scottish FA Youth Cup Final after scoring a brace in a 2-1 win over Hearts.

    Defending champions and four-times winners the Netherlands go into the tournament as favourites.

    The beautiful game. The national game. The world game.

    Football is a phenomenon. Hundreds of millions of people across the globe live and breathe it, playing it with their friends and watching their heroes.

    But don't be content to just watch it. Lace up your boots and get your foot on the ball to take part in perhaps the most easily accessible sport there is.

    Football gives you an all-round workout. Players run, kick, dodge, sprint and jump, and constantly twisting and turning your body increases endurance, promotes agility and develops physical co-ordination.

    Football also promotes teamwork on and off the pitch, as many teams socialise together.
