The Northern Ireland futsal squad have arrived in Scotland for the annual Home Nations tournament.

They will be facing the host nation tonight in the first of three massive games at the Oriam international sports centre on the outskirts of Edinburgh.

Coach Jonny Michael is hoping his side, a mixture of youth and experience, can build on some of the hard work they have doing in training.

"They're still on a massive learning curve but hopefully they can give a really good account of themselves - starting tonight against Scotland," he said.

This is just the NI team's second Home Nations event - after making their debut last year in Wales.

Kick off is 7.30
