Croatia striker Ivan Klasnic has accused England captain John Terry of punching him in the kidneys during Wednesday’s World Cup qualifier.
Terry claimed Klasnic spat at him during the closing stages of England’s 5-1 win at Wembley and the Croatian has responded with an allegation of his own.
Klasnic had a double kidney transplant in 2007 and the forward, currently on loan at Bolton from Nantes, feels Terry was deliberately trying to cause damage to that area.
“He hit me with a fist exactly in the place where I’ve been operated,” he told The Sun.
“I was lucky to be wearing a protective belt. He is the first player who has tried to hit me with purpose in the kidney. He insulted me first then hit me.
“And now he has accused me of spitting at me of spiting at him? I didn’t do it. “We spoke after the final whistle and I thought we sorted everything out, but obviously not so.”
