Scotland dealt double injury blow as Ryan Fraser and Grant Hanley are ruled out of all-or-nothing Euro 2020 play-off against Serbia on Thursday

Ryan Fraser and Grant Hanley will both miss Scotland's Euro 2020 do-or-die play-off against Serbia on Thursday due to injury.

Newcastle United winger Fraser is out with a hamstring problem that also saw him miss his club's 2-0 defeat by Southampton on Friday, while Norwich City central defender Hanley also struggled with a hamstring issue earlier on this season and won't be risked despite lasting the 90 minutes in a 1-0 home win over Swansea City on Saturday.

'It's disappointing,' said Scotland assistant manager Steven Reid. 'Grant's missed a little bit of football and unfortunately won't be with us, and Ryan, who played really well in the last camp.
