ANDREW ROBERTSON

RUSSELL MARTIN

DARREN FLETCHER
The captain was winning his 75th cap but struggled to set the tempo. Stayed inside at the interval with an injury. 5
OLIVER BURKE
Scotland’s most expensive footballer at 19, the £13 million signing for Bundesliga side RB Leipzig looked raw at times and was replaced by James Forrest 11 minutes after the break. 5
CHRIS MARTIN
The big striker was given little quality service but slid a volley past the far post on 25 minutes and headed just wide after the break. 6
