With torrential rain hitting the National Stadium just before the start of the Malta v Iceland international friendly match, Malta’s Steve Borg (number 15) leaves his Malta team mates during the playing of the national anthems in order to hand over his tracksuit jacket to the mascot boy shivering in the rain.  A clear noble act of respect!
