Scotland short of left-back options

SCOTLAND could face a crisis over who to play at left-back as the World Cup qualifying double-header of Serbia and Macedonia approaches.

Southampton's Danny Fox and Charlie Mulgrew of Celtic, who would be expected to contest the position, reported to Scotland's training camp with injuries yesterday.

Russell Martin, the Norwich City defender, is also a doubt and Christophe Berra, the Wolverhampton Wanderers centre-back, was excused as he awaits the birth of his first child, due today.
