REAL FAIR PLAY!!
Germany striker Miroslav Klose has received a fair play award after admitting a goal he had scored in the Italian league was a handball.
Neither two “fair” goals of Klose could help out Germany against Sweden…crazy!
He now has scored 67 goals for the German National Team so there is just one goal left for Klose to tie the legendary all time goal record of Gerd Mueller …Go for it Miro!
Lazio striker Miroslav Klose endeared himself to his Napoli opponents, and likely the rest of Italy, with his act of sportsmanship on Wednesday.
Barely three minutes into the Serie A clash, Klose touched a corner past Napoli keeper Morgan De Sanctis to give Lazio an early lead. Napoli players were furious, and justifiably so after replays showed what the referee missed: a clear handball from the German striker.
Klose initially celebrated before coming clean to the referee, who spared the forward a yellow card and shook his hand. Napoli were equally grateful and congratulating their opponent as warmly as the Lazio players were moments earlier.
Klose and Lazio’s reward? A crushing 3-0 defeat.
