Tierney Starts for Scotland in Liverpool Friendly

Celtic defender Kieran Tierney has been named in Steve Clarke's Scotland squad for the friendly against Ivory Coast in Liverpool.

Scotland has made eight changes from the side that lost to Japan, giving fringe players the opportunity to stake their claim for the World Cup. The match is being held at Everton's impressive new stadium.

The full Scotland squad includes Kelly, McCrorie, Souttar, Hyam, Robertson, Tierney, Gilmour, Christie, McTominay, Hirst, and Adams. Ivory Coast has also named their team, featuring Lafont, Diomande, Singo, Kossounou, Kessie, Traore, Wahi, Oulai, and Toure.
