Following Everton defender Nathan Patterson, who was injured in the first match against Ukraine on September 21 in Glasgow, Scotland's national team has lost three more players. This is reported by the official website of the Scottish Football Association.

Manager of the "Tartan Army" Steve Clarke will have to do without defenders Kieran Tierney from Arsenal and Scott McKenna from Nottingham Forest, who are also injured, as well as midfielder Scott McTominay from Manchester United, who is suspended due to a yellow card accumulation.

In turn, the coach has called up defender Steven Kinglsey and forward Barry McKay, both representing Heart of Midlothian.

Scotland National Team Roster

Goalkeepers: Craig Gordon (Heart of Midlothian), Liam Kelly (Macclesfield Town), Robbie McCrorie (Rangers).

Defenders: Jack Hendry (Club Brugge, Belgium), Aaron Hickey (Brentford, England), Grant Hanley (Norwich City, England), Anthony Ralston, Greg Taylor (both - Celtic), Ryan Porteous (Hibernian), Steven Kinglsey (Heart of Midlothian).

Midfielders: Stuart Armstrong (Southampton, England), Billy Gilmour (Chelsea, England), John McGinn (Aston Villa, England), Ryan Jack (Rangers), Callum McGregor, David Turnbull (both - Celtic).

Forwards: Che Adams (Southampton, England), Ryan Christie (Bournemouth, England), Lyndon Dykes (Queen of the South, England), Ryan Fraser (Newcastle United, England), Barry McKay (Heart of Midlothian).

It should be noted that the participation of Southampton's Che Adams and Queen of the South's Lyndon Dykes in the match against Ukraine is also in doubt due to their illness.
