Scottish fans will be allowed to wear traditional kilts during World Cup matches. The Scottish Football Association has confirmed that it has reached an agreement with FIFA to allow the wearing of traditional leather sporran pouches over kilts during matches. This outfit violates the security restrictions for entering stadiums during the World Cup, which is co-hosted by the United States, Canada, and Mexico from June 11 to July 19. Scotland's national team will play in Group B alongside Brazil, Morocco, and Haiti, playing two matches in Boston and one in Miami. The World Cup organizing committee only allows ticket holders to carry transparent bags or bags half the size of the traditional Scottish sporran. This raised concerns among Scottish fans about not being able to wear the traditional kilt, which is a knee-length skirt without pockets, so personal items are carried in sporran pouches. The Scottish team is expected to receive great support from its fans, known as the 'Tartan Army', to support their country in their first World Cup appearance since 1998.
