See the scouts won as a "bonus", not the ultimate goal. You'll have plenty of tokens available, if you happen to win the competition. So you can still buy scout players or train other players with those tokens. But since you've won, you'll also get in addition extra scout players with the ones you'll buy/train with your tokens.

There's no way you can have this deal if you just "buy" the tokens. Agreed, the chance that you'll win is probably slim, but it's always better than no chance at all.
