Hearts star Stewart gets Scotland call-up for Macedonia clash
HEARTS midfielder Michael Stewart has received an international call-up for Scotland's forthcoming World Cup qualifiers against Macedonia and Iceland. Several withdrawals have left national coach George Burley with a depleted squad and he has again turned to the influential Tynecastle player.
Stewart was a late addition to the squad last month when Scotland drew with Northern Ireland at Hampden, appearing as a second half substitute in the 0-0 draw. He was excluded from Burley's original party but will join the national squad at their base on the banks of Loch Lomond this afternoon.
Scotland face Macedonia in Skopje on Saturday afternoon before travelling to Reykjavik to face Iceland next Wednesday.
