Wales to play Scotland, Sweden or Czech Republic in Ukraine fundraiser

Wales will host a friendly on March 29 to raise funds for Ukraine war victims.  They will play Scotland if they lose to Austria in the March 24th World Cup qualifier.

If they win, the losers of the Sweden v Czech Republic semi-final will be the opposition.

Details below from the FAW:


The Football Association of Wales is pleased to announce that in a show of support to our friends in Ukraine, Cymru will play an international challenge match on Tuesday, 29 March (KO 7.45pm) at Cardiff City Stadium to raise funds for the Disasters Emergency Committee (DEC) Ukraine Humanitarian Appeal.

Cymru’s opponent for the match will be determined depending on the outcome of the World Cup
play-off semi-final with Austria on 24 March.

Should Cymru win against Austria, they will play the losing team from the Path B semi-final between Sweden and Czech Republic. If Cymru fail to win against Austria, Tuesday’s opponents in Cardiff will be Scotland.

Tickets for the game go on sale to The Red Wall from 10:00am on Friday, 18 March and fans will be able to add an optional donation to the DEC Ukraine Humanitarian Appeal when purchasing their ticket.

The Cymru Men’s National Team will be making a donation to the appeal and the DEC will also run a bucket collection at Cardiff City Stadium. Any profit made by the FAW from the staging of the match will also be donated.

18 million people are projected to become affected by the conflict with four million people expected to be displaced, leaving behind their jobs, belongings and loved ones. Donations made prior to and at the Cymru international match will help to provide food, water, shelter, healthcare and protection.
