Callum Strang, 22, tweeted his disgust at Gordon Strachan’s decision to bring the striker Martin off the bench in the closing stages as Scotland chased a winning goal against Slovenia.
The landscape gardener from North Queensferry, wrote: “Chris Martin coming on. Strachan playing for a draw again. If he scores the winner I’ll get Viva la Vida tattooed on my a**e #Coldplay.”
After being booed by some home fans, Martin managed to fire home a late winner in the 88th minute.
Callum then tweeted: “Ah well that’s the a**e getting inked then eh,” and today he followed through on his promise.
In front of his laughing colleagues and boss, who had decided to start work later, Callum got the words: “Chris Martin, Viva La Vida, 1-0, 26/03/17,” on his right bumcheek.

After being tattooed at the Crossroads Tattoo Studio, in Dunfermline, Callum said: “It was painful, it nipped a bit, but I’m surprised by how happy I am with it.
“I actually like how the tattoo has turned out, and surprisingly have absolutely no regrets.”
