Some fans have taken to Twitter to give their reaction to Arsenal left-back Kieran Tierney’s performance for Scotland tonight.
Tierney was in action for Scotland in their 2022 World Cup qualifier against Israel tonight.
The Arsenal star plays as a left back for the Gunners, but for Scotland tonight, he started on the left from a back-three.

Liverpool left-back Andy Robertson was playing later.
It was done in part to include both Tierney and Robertson on the same team.
It wasn’t a particularly good performance from Tierney and Scotland in the first half, but they escalated in the second.

Tierney was strong at the rear and pushed his team forward as well.
The former Celtic left-back played two key passes, had 83.7% passing accuracy, won a header, took 68 touches, attempted a dribble, made a tackle and an interception, and made four crosses.
Liverpool star Andy Robertson provided two assists, and Manchester United midfielder Scott McTominay scored the final winning goal.
Scotland won 3-2.
Some fans were impressed with Tierney tonight and have been raving about him on Twitter.

Watching the Scotland vs Israel game and having Patterson, Robertson and Tierney as full-backs is a cheat code, their crosses are on the verge! MON SCOTLAND

Robertson and Tierney are pretty good together on that left side for Scotland.
