Scotland captain Scott Brown could not hide his contempt for Malta’s Steve Borg for spitting at him when the two teams met last night.
The home side picked up a 2-0 win and Brown believes that the Maltese defender had spit on him in an attempt to wind him up. Brown was one booking away from missing next month’s vital qualifier against Slovakia and the midfielder was furious with Borg’s intentions.
Although the Celtic star managed to keep his cool during the game by not retaliating, he expressed his frustrations after the match. During the post match interview, Brown referred to the Malta defender as “a horrible b*****d”.
