Images and videos have been spreading like wild-fire on the internet today of Bayern Munich midfielder Arjen Robben appearing to spit on Arsenal defender Bacary Sagna whilst the Frenchman was down on the ground.
However, the Munich midfielder has reacted to these rumours and said that it is sweat rolling off his head and isn’t him spitting.
The Dutchman said he would never do such a horrid thing to a fellow professional and insists that it was sweat.
‘I don’t have much hair, and the sweat just dripped off,’ said Robben.
‘I must make this clear: I did not spit. I would never do that in my life,’ he added.
‘If I ever did that, you could drag me off the pitch and ban me for 10 games. If I ever spat at an opponent, I’d never be able to show my face to my family ever again.’
