Scotland’s Euro 2024 campaign received a boost as they secured a 1-1 draw against Switzerland on Wednesday night. The match saw Scott McTominay scoring an early goal for the Scots, only to be equalized by a stunning strike from Xherdan Shaqiri.

After suffering a heavy defeat to Germany in their opening game, Scotland needed a positive result to keep their hopes alive in the tournament. McTominay’s fortunate goal in the 13th minute provided them with the perfect start, but a defensive error from Anthony Ralston allowed Shaqiri to level the score with a brilliant long-range effort.

Despite both teams creating chances to snatch a late winner, the match ended in a stalemate. Scotland now face a must-win game against Hungary in their final group stage match to have a chance of progressing to the knockout stages. Meanwhile, Switzerland are in a good position to advance as the second-placed team in the group.

The result leaves the Scots in a precarious position, needing a victory in their next game to stay in contention for a spot in the last 16. As the Euro 2024 action unfolds, fans will be eagerly following the team’s progress and hoping for a successful campaign.
