Billy Gilmour was comforted by Scotland team-mates after going down clutching his knee [SNS]
Scotland head coach Steve Clarke is "100% worried" about Billy Gilmour after the midfielder came off injured during the 4-1 friendly win over Curacao.
The Napoli player, 24, will have a scan later on Saturday and Clarke says he is "hoping and praying he'll be on the plane" when the Scots fly to the United States on Sunday.
Gilmour started at Hampden but was withdrawn after pulling up with a knee issue.
His replacement, Findlay Curtis, scored Scotland's first-half leveller before Lawrence Shankland's double after the break and a late Ryan Christie penalty.
"One request was obviously no injuries," Clarke said, "Obviously, we've lost Billy.
"We're not too sure how bad it is just now. He's obviously going to be assessed overnight and fingers crossed the wee man's fine.
"Yep, 100% worried. He hurt himself in the tackle and then he made the decision he had to come off, so that tells you that he himself knew it wasn't right.
"We'll just have to wait and see, there's no point in speculating or thinking the worst, let's wait and see what the medics say."
