Adebayor Celebration vs Arsenal
Adebayor signed for Manchester City from Arsenal on a five-year-contract in July 2009 – and in the league clash against his former club Arsenal, the striker scored in a 4-2 victory.
However, it wasn’t the goal that enraged Gunners fans – rather it was the celebration that followed; Adebayor ran almost the entire length of the pitch to celebrate in front of the Arsenal fans causing a predictably angry response.
The celebration was in reaction to the racial abuse and insults about his mother sung throughout the game by his former fans.
The Togo international was booked for his actions, but received no further punishment.
