Liverpool's Adam, Villa's Hutton, West Brom's Dorrans out of Scotland squad

Six players including Liverpool midfielder Charlie Adam have pulled out of the Scotland squad for Friday's international friendly with Cyprus in Larnaca.

Craig Levein's roster has been decimated as Adam has withdrawn with a knee injury whilst Aston Villa full-back Alan Hutton (knee), West Bromwich Albion midfielder Graham Dorrans (ankle), Norwich City defender Russell Martin (knee), Rangers left-back Lee Wallace (thigh) and Cardiff City goalkeeper David Marshall (illness) are all unavailable.

Levein has brought in St Mirren gloveman Craig Samson, Blackpool' Stephen Crainey, MK Dons defender Gary McKenzie and Cardiff midfielder Craig Conway to cover the losses.
