After the excellent performance and result in Bucharest, up next is Scotland at Hampden Park on Tuesday night.ย
We know many Northern Ireland fans will be familiar with Glasgow and Hampden, but for some, this may be the first visit.ย
The Scottish Football Association has produced a very useful guide for visiting fans, which contains pretty much all the information you'll need.ย
We've reproduced it here ๐๐ปand you can download it.
Here's some of the info and a few other bits and pieces.ย

You can take the train from Glasgow Central Station, getting off at Mount Florida. It's a five minute walk to the stadium.ย
You may want to look at downloading the Trainline app and buying a return ticket on Tuesday, as the station and ticket kiosks are likely to be very busy!

Depending on which section your ticket is for, the follow entrances can be used.ย
Sections A1-A2: T1-2
Sections A3-A4: T6-9
Section A5: T10-11ย
There's also a dedicated entrance for Accessible ticket holders, which is sign posted and is at the vehicle entrance to the right of our turnstiles.ย
If anyone might find the steps to the turnstiles a struggle, you can walk towards the left, and the path will take you to the turnstiles without having to use the steps.ย
The stadium is cashless, although many of the vendors outside will take cash payment.ย

Lead Bookers will have already received an email from the Scottish FA regarding tickets, and we would recommend downloading the Hampden Park Tickets App in preparation, if you haven't already.ย
The Irish FA will be sharing more information tomorrow, and we plan to do the same.ย
