Oli McBurnie and Ross Stewart are in scoring form for their clubs
On Sunday night Steve Clarke said that he was "more or less set in my mind" about the 26 players he intends to bring to the World Cup, before adding that two spots might still be up for grabs.
He didn't elaborate but you'd hope - probably a forlorn hope - that the Scotland manager has an open mind on his chosen strikers because if he's still weighing things up on that front then the weekend gave him much to ponder.
Ross Stewart, Tommy Conway, George Hirst, Kieron Bowie and Oli McBurnie all scored for their clubs. McBurnie scored twice. Robbie Ure, the former Scotland U-21 player, didn't score, which made a change for him. Ure is not a contender for Clarke's squad but he's scored four goals in six games for IK Sirus who are top of Sweden's Allsvenskan.
Clearly, Clarke has a shortage of goals from his striker(s). It's a problem as old as the hills. Back-to-back games without a goal now, a pair of blanks against Japan and Ivory Coast. Che Adams and Lyndon Dykes - the main men; willing, hard-working, great servants but hardly threatening.
