The least welcome sight of Friday evening for Scotland supporters did not involve the two Finland goals that ensured Steve Clarke’s team head to Euro 2024 with a draw rather than a victory in their final warm-up. As Andy Robertson quickly downed tablets on the touchline, fears increased that Clarke was facing another selection blow before Germany.

The manager later eased concern by explaining Robertson felt nauseous during half-time of the 2-2 draw. There appeared no broader concern. Robertson was withdrawn shortly after the hour mark, having created Lawrence Shankland’s goal and fired the ball into the area that triggered Arttu Hoskonen to flick into his own net. Robertson remains one of Scotland’s key attacking threats.
