Fulham striker McCormack withdrawn from Scotland squad

The Scottish FA has confirmed that Fulham striker Ross McCormack is set to miss upcoming international fixtures due to the knee injury sustained against former club Leeds United in midweek.

The Scottish national team will be without McCormack for the forthcoming internationals against Northern Ireland and Gibraltar but manager Gordon Strachan has no plans to bring in any replacement for the games.

Scotland will play a friendly against Northern Ireland at Hampden Park on Wednesday, which will be followed by the European Qualifier against bottom placed-Gibraltar next weekend.

The Scots are in third place in their Euro2016 qualifying group with seven points from four games while Poland sits at the top of the group with 10 points.
