London, Oct 5 (ANI): Togolese footballer Emmanuel Adebayor has said he was hurt by the abuse hurled at him by Arsenal fans during the North London derby, but added he is happy that he managed to keep 'his dignity' intact.
Gunners fans sang songs mocking the machine-gun attack on the Togo team last year, which left three of his friends dead.
However, Adebayor, who moved from Arsenal to Manchester City in 2009, said: "The songs that they sung about me were very bad, but was I surprised? No. Disappointed? Yes," The Sun reports.
"Obviously it was all meant to hurt me, to upset me, to anger me. But I am so glad I kept my dignity in the face of people behaving like that," he added. (ANI)
