Stoke winger Moses accepts apology from BBC pundit Hartson

Stoke City winger Victor Moses has accepted an apology from BBC pundit John Hartson.

Hartson outraged Stoke City when he echoed Swansea manager Garry Monk's accusation that Moses had dived and cheated to win a penalty during their clash at the Britannia last Sunday.

But following talks between Stoke and the BBC, Hartson has spoken to Moses and made a personal apology.

Moses has issued the following statement through the club: "I'm grateful to John for having taken the trouble to ring me to apologise for his comments.

"I'm happy to accept his apology and am now keen to move on."

All parties, say the club, now consider the matter closed.
