Germany striker Miroslav Klose has said there was nothing extraordinary about him owning up to having scored a goal with his hand in his side Lazio\'s 3-0 defeat at Napoli on Wednesday. Klose, who has been Lazio\'s best player since arriving at the Rome club last year, has been heaped with praise for the gesture in an Italian top flight that is not famed for being a beacon of fair play. It was considered especially noble as the incident happened early in the match with the score at 0-0 and if Lazio had been awarded the goal the outcome may have been very different. FIFA President Sepp Blatter was among the people in the game to pay the 34-year-old his compliments. \"The ball ended up hitting my hand and it was the most normal thing in the world to tell the referee,\" he told the German Soccer Federation\'s website.
