Scotland Team’s Up – Callum McGregor starts, “Let’s do this” Scotland

Callum McGregor is the only current Celtic player in the Scotland line-up for final group match in the European Championships at Hampden this evening. Calmac though is joined by a number of former Celts with David Marshall in goal, the captain Andy Robertson at left back, Kieran Tierney in central defence and Stuart Armstrong replacing the Covid Positive Billy Gilmour in midfield.

Subs: Two keepers Gordon and McLaughlin, then Ryan Christie, Fleck, Gallagher, Cooper, David Turnbull, Nisbet, Fraser, Patterson, James Forrest and McKenna.

Both teams need to win to progress, a draw and both are eliminated. Should be some game. Kick-off is at 8pm and the match is live on STV or ITV if outside Scotland.
