A CITY centre shopping mall is hoping to inspire the next generation of Scotland's footie stars by having a huge giveaway.
The St Enoch Centre will be giving out footballs if Scotland beats the Czech Republic and goalie gloves if they lose on Monday.
If Scotland wins the game, the St Enoch Centre will give away 50 Euro footballs to encourage more striking practice.
However, if Scotland loses, 50 pairs of junior goalie gloves will be given away on Tuesday following the game.
If it is a draw, then 25 balls and 25 goalie gloves will be available.

Anne Ledgerwood, centre director for St Enoch Centre, said: “The team at St Enoch Centre want to back Scotland all the way as they head into their first major tournament in 23 years, and what better way than helping the next generation who dream of playing for their country one day.
“It would be fair to say that being a Scotland fan can bring its challenges, so we wanted to make sure that our support helps where the team needs it most. So, if the team win on Monday we will give away footballs to inspire our strikers but if the result doesn’t go our way, then we thought goalie gloves may be more beneficial.
“If the result of a draw, we decided the sensible option was to improve both skills and give away a mix of both. Fingers crossed it is footballs that we will be giving away on Tuesday.”

Depending on the result either 50 footballs, 50 pairs of goalie gloves, or 25 of each will be available from 9 am on Tuesday to the first 50 customers to the customer services desk on the first floor of St Enoch Centre. Terms and conditions apply.
