HOW THEY RATED
Marks out of 10
By Graham Swann
SCOTLAND 3-4-1-2 CRAIG GORDON 7
Helpless as Zahavi scored a brilliant free-kick to open the scoring. Asking serious questions of defence for Israel’s second.
SCOTT McTOMINAY 7
Yes, he looked uncomfortable in back three. But who cares? Bundled home stoppage-time winner. Right place, right time.
JACK HENDRY 6
Rash challenge to bring down Zahavi for the free-kick which the striker converted for 1-0. But flick-on set up McTominay’s goal.
KIERAN TIERNEY 8
Arsenal man linked brilliantly on the left with Andy Robertson as Scotland made it 1-1. Energetic performance again.
NATHAN PATTERSON 6
Lost possesion cheaply and needed to be stronger in lead-up to Israel’s opener. Booked but better display in second half.
BILLY GILMOUR 9
Gambled to shoot and won penalty. Classy playmaker sees passes that no one else does. Harshly booked in second half.
CALLUM McGREGOR 7
Unable to make an impact in first half. Not used nearly enough in periods of play in midfield. Miles improved after the break.
ANDY ROBERTSON 8
Terrific determination and link-up play as John McGinn made it 1-1. Beauty of a cross to Dykes for second equaliser. Booked.
JOHN McGINN 8
Scored a superb equaliser for 1-1. Squandered massive chance to convert a late winner. Booked for a tackle on Solomon.
CHE ADAMS 6
Huffed and puffed in the first half. Upped tempo in second half but evening came to an end when he was replaced by Ryan Christie.
LYNDON DYKES 6
Defensively suspect as Israel made it 2-1. Dire penalty but made amends at 2-2. Wasted huge headed chance to make it 3-2.
