Goals from Grant Hanley and John McGinn cancelled out a double from giant Austria frontman Sasa Kalajdzik to ensure Steve Clarke’s side collected a point from a side ranked 25 places above them in the league table.
Here’s how the Scotland players rated ...
5. Stephen O'Donnell - 7
Continues to impress at international level. May look unconventional at times, but gave Bayern Munich full-back David Alaba a run for his money. Several good runs forward and produced a superb delivery for vital equaliser. Photo: Craig Williamson - SNS Group
6. Andy Robertson - 6
Linked up well with Tierney and showed great energy up and down the left but not enough of the quality deliveries he is capable of. Too many crosses either over or under hit. Photo: Alan Harvey - SNS Group
7. Scott McTominay - 7
A big presence for Scotland in the middle of the park in the first half but would have liked to see him break forward more. Quieter second half but move into the midfield worked well. Photo: Craig Williamson - SNS Group
8. John McGinn - 8
Scotland's hero again with a stunning overhead kick equaliser which avoided a potentially fatal opening defeat in WC qualification. Had a quiet game up until being moved into advanced role where he is best suited for Scotland. Photo: Craig Williamson - SNS Group
