This weekend sees the Army Super Cup final, which is broadcast live on the BFBS Forces News YouTube channel, played in Harthill, Scotland.

While the fixture is usually reserved for a UK venue, it has been played away from Britain before.

In 2018, the final between 1 Yorkshire Regiment and 152 Regiment Royal Logistic Corps was played in Tallinn, Estonia.

A sizeable crowd was in attendance, including many locals, while the game was also streamed on Facebook to more than 8,000 viewers.

It was a tight game between the two teams but a goal in the last 10 minutes gave 1 YORKS a 2-1 win.

Will we see a dramatic finale in the 2024 final between 6 SCOTS and 1 Mercian?

You can watch that match LIVE on the BFBS Forces News YouTube channel from 12:15 UK time on Sunday.
