10 Brutal Times Footballers Got Their Revenge
2. Emmanuel Adebayor V Arsenal Fans
The Togo forward isn't one to shy away from his feelings and controversy followed him around during his time in England and never more so than following his move to Manchester City.
Arsenal fans took offence to the move, thinking the striker was a money-grabbing 'Judas'. Booed throughout and receiving a barrage of abuse, it was clear that Adebayor wouldn't be the kind to not celebrate a goal against his former employers.
However, what happened next was a shock to all and the scenes in City's 4-2 win in 2009 went down as an iconic Premier League image. After heading home Shaun Wright-Phillips' cross, Adebayor decided it was a wise move to run the entire length of the pitch towards the Arsenal faithful. With a knee slide to boot, he lapped up all the attention, much to the disgust of the Gunners' travelling support.
