10:52 pm
it is their last competitive game before the world cup. scotland and northern ireland are in action tomorrow night. northern ireland will play greece. but a virus in the scotland camp is threatening their chances ahead of the decider with ukraine. steve clarke's side need to just avoid defeat, to ensure promotion in the nations league, and confirm a play off spot for euro 202a. they'll be without scott mckenna, scott mctominay and kieran tierney the latest players to withdraw from the squad, while che adams and lyndon bikes have also been ill. the fowards have travelled to poland to play ukraine, with clarke confident after back to back wins. we played well. it was a different game. it will be a different mindset for the ukrainians. they know how good we are. we didn't show them how good we are. we didn't show them how good we are. we didn't show them how good we were in the summer, but now they know how good we are and how good we can be. they will be determined to play to their best, we are determined to play to our best, so it should be a pretty good game.
