Scotland player ratings as Ryan Porteous makes stunning debut and Aaron Hickey lays down right-back gauntlet

Scotland were promoted to League A in the Nations League after a hard fought 0-0 draw with Ukraine in Poland.

Steve Clarke 's side knew only a point was needed to top Group B1 and secure a place in the top league as well as a EURO 2024 playoff spot after wins over Ireland and Ukraine over the past week. The Scots also benefit by going up to pot two for the next Euros draw which shows the progress made over the past 18 months under the former Kilmarnock boss.

Scotland rode their luck at times with Aaron Hickey, Ryan Porteous and Craig Gordon all involved in crucial moments while Andriy Yarmolenko missed a huge opportunity near the start of the first half to break the deadlock. However Clarke's men showed lots of resilience to overcome a second half wave of Ukrainian threat to land the all important point that was required.
