Scotland's World Cup playoff vs Ukraine set for delay after Aleksander Ceferin steps in

Scotland's upcoming World Cup qualifier against Ukraine has been postponed until June under the order of UEFA president Aleksander Ceferin according to Shakhtar Donetsk's director of football Darijo Srna.

The game was originally scheduled to take place at Hampden Park in just over a fortnight before Ukraine officially requested a postponement given the harrowing scenes witnessed in their country as a result of Russia's invasion.

UEFA and FIFA are planning to make an announcement on both Scotland's game with Ukraine and Wales' clash against Austria in the coming days given the winners of each were expected to face off for a place in the World Cup later this year.
