DAVID MARSHALL 8
An experienced performance from the stopper who was called into action a number of times throughout.
SCOTT MCTOMINAY 5
Struggled at times to contain Pesek and looked exposed in the second half especially.
SCOTT MCKENNA 7
Solid at the back, has looked more comfortable in a back three than he did in a back four.
LIAM COOPER 6
The Leeds man did his job well and looked quick on the turn.
LIAM PALMER 7
Was comfortable at right wing back and put in some superb crosses, notably for the opening goal.
JOHN FLECK 6
Rarely gave the ball away but didn’t leave much of an impact in his third cap.
KENNY MCLEAN 6
Gave up possession for the opening goal with a loose pass but recovered well.
ANDY ROBERTSON 7
Much brighter from the skipper who made a number of positive runs in behind, notably winning the second half penalty.
STUART ARMSTRONG 6
A quiet night for the Southampton man, but he never shied away from his defensive duties.
RYAN CHRISTIE 8
The Celtic man dictated play and technically looked a step above the rest, scoring another penalty.
LYNDON DYKES 7
Took his goal so well and looked sharp with every touch, has definitely taken his chance in a Scotland jersey.

Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
Callum Baird, Editor of The National
