ALLAN MCGREGOR: Pulled off a wonder save from Pepe that was then flagged offside, but the keeper wasn’t to know that. Didn’t have much else to do. 6
JAMES TAVERNIER: Looked short of confidence in first half but played major part in opening goal, showing determination to force ball to Jack. A night that may get him back on track. 7
FILIP HELANDER: Doesn’t always look comfortable on the ball, but used it well enough and defended stoutly enough too when he had to. 7
CONNOR GOLDSON: Distribution was poor in first half but did his job where it mattered by getting Luis Diaz’s effort off the line in the second. Improved thereafter. 7
BORNA BARISIC: Received a deserved booking for a hefty challenge on Otavio, but regrouped and was a steady presence at left-back. 6
RYAN JACK: Carried on recent brilliant form and got an assist to his name as he picked out Morelos for opener. Worked his socks off. 7
STEVEN DAVIS: Battled away and gradually grew as an influence, culminating in his appearance at the edge of the area to slam in the second. 7
RYAN KENT: Looked bright but lacked killer touch. Kept his head up though and never gave up as he took another step back to full sharpness. 7
GLEN KAMARA: Did brilliantly to hook Pepe’s flick off the line early on, but that was his biggest contribution really as he struggled to get a foothold in the game. 5
BRANDON BARKER: Struggled to make an impact. Put a brilliant opportunity over the bar, but other than that his contribution to the game was limited. 5
ALFREDO MORELOS: Barely had a sniff in the opening 69 minutes, but what does that matter when you can produce a finish like he did on the 70th? Took a low ball from Jack brilliantly on his right and rifled an arrow of a shot into the bottom corner with his left. Brilliant. 8
SUBSTITUTES
SCOTT ARFIELD: On for final 25 minutes and got stuck in. 5
JOE ARIBO: Late sub kept things ticking over in middle of the park. 3
JERMAIN DEFOE: On to give Morelos his standing ovation. 3
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
Callum Baird, Editor of The National
