KEOWN TALKS TACTICS: England must beware of Scotland's role-swapping

Scotland have two top-class left backs in their squad and their manager wants them both in his team.

The news that Tierney should be fit to start is massive for Scotland. Before this tournament began, they drew 2-2 with Holland and Tierney and Robertson could be seen rotating in that warm-up match.
