Scotland's goal hero Colin Hendry's expecting a dressing down from FIFA.

He scored twice in a four-nil win against San Marino in their World Cup qualifier last night, but the Bolton player elbowed San Marino substitute Nicola Albani in the face towards the end of the match.

FIFA will investigate, but Hendry says he has done nothing wrong.
