Rangers defender Kirk Broadfoot was hospitalised after being scalded when an egg exploded in his face.

The Scotland international suffered facial injuries as he inspected two eggs he was poaching in his microwave. One blew up, squirting hot water at him.
Broadfoot, 25, went home after receiving treatment for a scalded cheek and he is now being monitored by club doctors.
A Rangers insider told the Daily Record: "It may sound funny but it was quite a serious accident. Kirk's face was quite badly burned.
"As it happens, it was a close shave. He was very close to burning his eye, which could have had a serious impact on his career."
The Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents spokeswoman said: "Our advice is always to take care when dealing with boiling water in a microwave."
Broadfoot declined to comment.

was he wearing his shellsuit at the time?Could get a transfer to Tott "hen" ham Hotspurt ?maybe he could play eggstra time?Was it a Mexican (micro)wave?Was he just oeuf side?Did it have anything to do with Liver poule?
(or was it shelsea?)I think he should take a break from football and buy a bike so he can go scrambling!
Or maybe Celtic will poach him??
