Scotland star Kieran Tierney gives massive boost to Motherwell band at Euros

Scotland star Kieran Tierney has given a massive shout-out to Motherwell band The LaFontaines as part of his 'duty' as 'dressing room DJ' at the Euros.

In an interview with the BBC, the Arsenal left-back said he played The LaFontaines' Euros song 'Scotland, Bonnie Scotland' after their 0-0 draw with England at Wembley on Friday night.

Before the game, Muirhouse man Tierney said he just plays anything that can be 'raved up' to get the boys in the mood, and that the players missed his tunes when he didn't make the 2-0 opening game defeat to the Czech Republic.

When asked what music he played, Tierney said: "Before, I just had my usual, rave, dance, but the boys do love the tunes and it gets everyone up.

"I think they said they even missed that in the first game as well when I wasn't there.

"[After the game] I think I played the La Fontaines tune, see the one that's just come out there, the Scotland one, I think I put that on and a few boys are liking that now."

When asked about the unofficial Scotland anthem, Baccara's 'Yes Sir, I Can Boogie', Tierney admitted he's heard that song a bit too often but a version of it still gets an airing in the dressing room.

He said: "That's the first thing I did, played that one - that's all I've heard for about three months!

"Nah, it is good, there's a rave version of that, that I play before the game. Any song there is you just rave it up and I play it before in the changing room."

Tierney admitted to a few aches and pains from the game in London on Friday night, but says he will be ready to face Croatia tomorrow.

He said: "I'm still sore today, just legs in general, but I'll be fine for the game.

"I'm buzzing for the game and everyone else in the camp is as well."
