Three football fans from Norway have arrived in Edinburgh after walking 100 miles to get here.

After Norway was knocked out by the Scottish team in the qualifying rounds they decided to support Scotland in the finals.

The trio travelled from Norway to Glasgow and then made their way to Helensburgh. From there they walked 100 miles along the John Muir Way to Edinburgh, walking seven hours a day for the last six days. 

Tonight they are settling down in the Scottish capital to support Scotland in the opening match of Euro 24 in Munich.
