Hearts players Barrie McKay and Stephen Kingsley called up to the Scotland squad

Hearts pair Barrie McKay and Stephen Kingsley have been called upon for Scotland ahead of their UEFA Nations League B clash with Ukraine.

The Jambos have been left proud with the Tynecastle pair called into battle after injuries within the national team ranks. McKay has hit top form for the Jambos out wide and adds another attacking threat to head coach Steve Clarke's ranks. Kingsley meanwhile is capable of playing as a left-centre-back or in his natural left-back role, adding versatility for the national team boss.

Victory was achieved in Saturday's dogged match against the Republic of Ireland though a headed Jack Hendry effort and Ryan Christie's penalty kick. Arsenal left-back Kieran Tierney has pulled out of the squad ahead of Tuesday's match following a head knock in the Irish match, with the Celtic hero joining Scott McKenna and Scott McTominay in dropping out of a key game.
