Scotland star Kieran Tierney’s Euro 2024 campaign appears to be over after he was stretchered off during their match against Switzerland. The Arsenal full-back, 27, suffered a suspected torn hamstring around the hour mark in the 1-1 draw. The injury occurred when Swiss forward Dan Ndoye spun past Tierney, who then awkwardly placed his foot, potentially hyper-extending his knee.
Tierney collapsed in agony, leading Scotland’s medics to stretcher him off as Scott McKenna replaced him. Tierney, who spent last season on loan at Real Sociedad, looked distraught as he was carried off. Former Scotland players and fans quickly reacted to the blow. Ex-striker Steven Thompson commented on BBC Sportsound, “He’s done his hamstring. This is terrible news for Scotland.” Ex-winger Pat Nevin added on BBC Radio 5 Live, “That’s his hamstring absolutely gone.”
Fans expressed their sympathies on social media. One wrote, “Prayers for Kieran.” Another commented, “Let’s hope he didn’t do his ACL there. Comeback stronger.” Tierney has struggled with hamstring injuries, and this latest setback could affect Arsenal’s plans to offload him this summer.
