Scotland, Christy Grimshaw, Israel
2 June 2026
Scotland players have not discussed boycotting their Women’s World Cup qualifiers against Israel, according to Christy Grimshaw. Both matches will be played behind closed doors in Hungary because UEFA has barred fixtures in Israel for security reasons.
Grimshaw said players are aware of wider concerns but must follow governing-body decisions and focus on qualifying. Scotland lead Group B4 on goal difference from Belgium and need points to protect their play-off path.
