McTominay reveals heart treatment at World Cup

Scott McTominay has revealed he received treatment to correct an irregular heartbeat two days before Scotland's World Cup win over Haiti in June.

The Napoli midfielder recently underwent an ablation procedure - a minimally invasive operation to correct irregular heart rhythms - in Manchester.

At the World Cup, the 29-year-old was was put to sleep to correct his heartbeat and was given the all clear to play in the opening 1-0 victory over Haiti in Massachusettes.

"I had to go and get the shock on my heart," the former Manchester United player, who also also played the 90 minutes in the losses to Morocco and Brazil, said.

"I was two days before the Haiti game. You've prepared so well. I was in such good condition and then something like that happens. You're thinking, 'how is this happening to me'?

"You have to get on with it, that's the cards that you're dealt in football. Sometimes, things don't go your way.

"I was 100% [fit], but obviously, whenever you're sat in a hospital bed two days before the first game of the World Cup about to get put to sleep, it's not ideal, is it?"
