Navarro plays it cool

Sevilla defender Javi Navarro played down his hard-man reputation and insisted a “cool head” will be just as important as a “hot heart” in tonight’s UEFA Cup final against Middlesbrough.

Navarro is renowned in Spain for his uncompromising approach but he vowed to keep a lid on his fiery temper against the Teessiders at the Philips Stadion in Eindhoven.
