Twelve years ago, goalkeeper Mark Bosnich got himself into trouble after giving a mock Hitler salute when playing for Aston Villa at, of all clubs, Tottenham Hotspur.

Now his rehabilitation is complete after he coached at the Maccabi Futsal Club in his native Australia.

After teaching children at the club, Bosnich said he still regretted the mistake. “The thing was, my Auntie, who lives in Croatia, is Jewish.”
