Scotland player ratings against Poland as one man gets 9/10 while the surgeon and composed presence impress

Marks out of ten and resumes for the Scotland players involved against Poland

Scotland have finished third in Nations League Group A1 following a gripping 2-1 win away at Poland.

Steve Clarke’s men will now face a relegation play-off in March next year against one of the second-placed sides from Group B and will either be second or third seeds for the World Cup draw next month.

Scotland took the lead just three minutes into the encounter at PGE Narodowy when Billy Gilmour cut the Polish defence open with an excellent pass to Ben Doak, who in turn fed John McGinn to side-foot calmly for the opener.

Both teams fashioned plenty of chances in an action-packed, entertaining game - but it was Poland who found the net next on 59 minutes. The ball was worked out to right-back Kamil Piatkowski and he arrowed it high past Craig Gordon for the leveller.

Captain Andy Robertson, however, had the final say for Scotland in stoppage time as he bulleted in a header to give the Scots a big win.

We give each Scotland player a mark out of ten and assess their performance in Warsaw.
