Scotland learn route to next under-21 Euros

Scotland have learned their route to the next under-21 European Championships.

Scot Gemmill's side have this morning been drawn into qualification Group B alongside Portugal, Czechia, Bulgaria, Azerbaijan, and Gibraltar.

They will face each opponent twice, once at home and once away, as they aim to make it to the 2027 under-21 Euros.

In their most recent Euros qualification campaign, the Scots finished third in a group consisting of Spain, Belgium, Hungary, Kazakhstan, and Malta.

While they accumulated five wins and a draw, they narrowly missed out on a playoff spot to the Belgians, who finished three points above them in second.

Scotland's under-21s haven't qualified for a major tournament in just under 30 years.

1996 was the last time the national setup's oldest youth team made it to a Euros.

Gemmill and Co. will, therefore, be looking to create some history when they kick off their latest qualification campaign in a few months.
