Smith calls up Whittaker

Hibernian defender Steven Whittaker has been called into the Scotland squad by boss Walter Smith for Wednesday's Euro 2008 qualifier against Ukraine.
The 22-year-old replaces Christian Dailly who is suspended after picking up his second yellow card of the qualifying campaign in Saturday's shock 1-0 win against France.
Smith was already without the injured Aberdeen defender Russell Anderson.
It is the first time Whittaker has been called into the full international squad.
