Kieran Tierney suffers latest injury as Celtic hero's luckless run continues with Scotland decision

Arsenal left-back Kieran Tierney has pulled out of the Scotland squad ahead of Tuesday's match with Ukraine, as the Celtic hero joins Scott McKenna and Scott McTominay in dropping out.

The defender suffered a head blow in Saturday's 2-1 Nations League B win against the Republic of Ireland, which means they only need to obtain a point away to a side they beat 3-0 at Hampden last week to secure League A placement. Tierney has suffered a multitude of fitness concerns since his 2019 move from Arsenal to Celtic and this is the latest.

Scott McTominay is suspended for the match that takes place in Poland due to Russia's invasion on Ukraine, so he will also head home to Manchester United. Scott McKenna has been an impressive performer in the two matches played so far but he joins the likes of Jon McLaughlin, Grant Hanley and David Turnbull who have all had to pull out of this squad.
