Jack Hendry has issued a challenge to Brazil icon Neymar as Scotland prepare for their World Cup showdown, the defender unfazed by a player he has already shackled once before.
The Scotland centre-back faced the legendary winger in the Champions League and emerged with the man of the match award, a memory he carries into the upcoming 'battle' against the five-time world champions.
“Scotland defender Jack Hendry is unfazed by Brazil star Neymar, having shackled him before in the Champions League.”
Hendry knows exactly what the 34-year-old has in his locker after that previous encounter, and his confidence was reflected in comments that also addressed a reported 'spat' with teammate Scott McTominay.
With Scotland braced for a fierce contest, the defender's past experience of nullifying one of football's greatest talents could prove vital in their bid to cause an upset.
