Dailly calls for action on 'cheats'

Furious Scotland defender Christian Dailly has called for a clamp-down on the cheats he claims are infesting international football.

The West Ham man was convinced German players acted unsportingly during his side’s 2-1 defeat in Dortmund, where substitute Maurice Ross was sent off for two bookable offences.

Tempers flared throughout the second half at the Westfalenstadion and Swedish referee Anders Frisk twice found himself trying to break up a mob of feuding players.

On the pitch Dailly accused Germany left-back Tobias Rau of making a meal of the challenge that earned Ross his second yellow card.

And off it his anger had hardly subsided as he demanded action to be taken against the thespians of the modern game.

He said: “Something has to be done whether it is by the referee or by FIFA. Until something is done nothing is going to change.”
