Arsenal fullback Kieran Tierney admits Croatia were too good for Scotland last night.

Steve Clarke's side had to beat the 2018 World Cup finalists if they were to reach the last 16, but were beaten 3-1.

Tierney said: "The Modric goal knocked the stuffing out of us because we knew we were going to have to score two.

"And we knew the way the game was going it was going to be hard because they were unbelievable.

"Modric, especially, I think his performance was incredible. And as a team Croatia were magnificent.

"It was just tough to play against.

"Callum's goal gave us every chance. It was a tough first half but it was the perfect time to score and give us more confidence going into the second half. But, it never turned out to be that special night.

"We knew once it was 2-1 it was going to be tough.

"But we never gave up, that's for sure. We never gave up trying. Our effort was always there, no matter the score-line, no matter the minute."
