Croatia ‘spitter’ Klasnic: Terry hit me in the kidneys

Croatia’s Ivan Klasnic admitted to spitting during the World Cup qualifier against England on Wednesday but said he did not aim at John Terry.

Bolton striker Klasnic admitted to his club boss Gary Megson that although he did spit, he aimed it at the ground and then explained that Terry had hit him in the kidneys.

"He hit me with a fist exactly in the place where I've been operated,” he said.

"I was lucky to be wearing a protective belt. He is the first player who has tried to hit me with a purpose in the kidney. He insulted me first then he hit me.

"And now he has accused me of spitting at him? I didn't do it.

"We spoke after the final whistle and I thought we sorted everything out - but obviously not so."
