As well as celebrating Scotland’s return to the tournament after almost 30 years, the restaurant chain is bringing Mexican flavour to fans as the country prepares to host the massive event alongside USA and Canada.

Paul Beiboer, Head of Marketing at Wahaca: "Qualifying for a first World Cup since 1998 is a huge moment for Scottish football, so we wanted to mark the occasion and show our support for the national team.

“We're inviting fans to wear their Scotland shirts with pride and join us for a taco on the house as the country comes together behind the team this summer.”

Alongside those who have jetted off to the US for the match, millions of fans are expected to tune in for Scotland’s first World Cup fixture in 28 years.

Steve Clark’s men will take to the pitch in Boston against Haiti at 2.00am UK time on Sunday, June 14.

They will then face Morocco at 11pm on Friday, June 19 and Brazil at 11pm on Wednesday, June 24.
