Maltese players preparing for tomorrow's match against Scotland.
Malta held out for 53 minutes against England on Friday night before caving in late on to lose 4-0.
Brown said: "He did spit on me".
"It is a great result from England as well for us, we knew we had to win our game and then just hope they gave us a helping hand".
"If we didn't believe in ourselves, when you are not on a good place you can't get out of it".
Having had the privilege of representing my country at World Cups, I'd love for Gordon and the players to sample it all next summer.
"If we went with the same side I don't think anyone would complain".
Scotland have been playing must-win games since the Wembley defeat and maximum points from the Malta game - which came after the 3-0 win in Lithuania on Friday night - has kept them in with a chance of reaching Russian Federation next summer.
At long last Scotland are vital and in contention in Group F of these World Cup qualifiers.
"Fair play to the guys who have started the games, they have played well".
"Scotland deserve to be on this run".
Monday night and the second leg of a three-match run that will decide if the Tartan Army can book their tickets to next year's World Cup in Russian Federation, or if it'll be another major worldwide tournament spent as nothing more than interested bystanders.
The Slovaks face England at the same time as the Scots face Malta so what team will Strachan put out as they look to secure maximum points?
"I didn't really notice the cheering (of the English goals against Slovakia) and I thought the fans were maybe cheering us for keeping the ball".
"I watched their last game against Lithuania, they deserved to win and could have scored five goals".
"We need to spend more time together to work to improve the team".
A home tie vs Malta, with the match odds at [1.08] pushes us into a play on the handicap market, unless you fancy a shot at the [48.0] now available on the exchange about an away day.
Balzan's striker Alfred Effiong is back in the frame for Malta after serving a one-match in the England defeat.
But they still must win what seem two tight qualifying games to complete the group.
Scotland are unbeaten in four games and moved to within a point of second-place Slovakia with two fixtures remaining and a play-off spot up for grabs.
