Before the opening match of the European Championship
The Scots rock Munich city center
The Scots rock Munich! After some fans had already finished their beer in the bars in the morning, they moved on to Munich city center in the afternoon. The fans of the "Bravehearts" really let it rip before the kick-off (European Championship opening game at 9 pm against Germany), especially at Marienplatz and the fan mile in the Olympic Park (video above).
Scotland, the underdogs in Group A, will be relying on the support of tens of thousands of fans in addition to their own improved qualities for their European Championship opener. The supporters, known as the "Tartan Army" and often dressed in traditional kilts, are considered to be hard-drinking.
Fans celebrate McGinn
"We've got McGinn, Super John McGinn", the Scots can be heard singing over and over again. The 29-year-old John McGinn is the star of the team, is under contract with Aston Villa in the Premier League and has played 66 games for the national team.
According to media reports, 200,000 Scots are expected in Germany. However, only a fraction will make it to the stadium.
