DAVID WEIR insists Scotland can’t afford to focus all their attentions on Poland star Robert Lewandowski at Hampden.

The Bayern Munich forward will line up against Gordon Strachan’s side in fine form having netted twelve goals in his last four games, including a sensational five strikes in a nine minute spree against Wolfsburg.

Lewandowski is the biggest threat to Scotland’s chances of getting the win they have set their sights on to give them a chance of clinching third spot in Group D.

But Weir insists Strachan’s side shouldn't take their eye off their own game as they prepare what could be a memorable night at Hampden.

He said: "It would be a mistake to focus purely on one individual. He's a fantastic player, there's no getting away from that, but they've got other good players as well.

"There's more than one way stop people playing. It's not just a matter of focusing on one player. You can stop the supply and minimise their ability to get the ball to him.

"Scotland's strength is almost the opposite, rather than have a superstar they've got a team full of good players playing at a good level working together and I think that's the key for me.

"You've got to perform yourself, there's no point in worrying about everyone else and how to stop the opposition and then forgetting to perform yourself.

"Scotland will have a game plan and they have to win the game so I don't think there's any point in trying to minimise the opposition."

Scotland head into the final two fixtures at home to Poland and away to Gibraltar with their Euro dreams still intact.

Weir was part of the Craig Brown’s squad that played at the World Cup in France 17 years ago and the Rangers assistant manager hopes the current crop can live the international dream.

He said: "It's the best experience an international player can have. You go away as a group, the unity and the bonding and the whole country is behind you.

“The last one was in France in '98, hopefully this can be the next one and the players can experience that."
