Don’t chide Ade for settling a score
Emmanuel Adebayor’s stamp on Robin Van Persie would hardly have been deserving of the name in the oval ball game but, still, that sly and nasty little kick was, in the vernacular of the round ball code, properly diabolical, even if the player continues to protest his innocence. Yeah, right.
Much more understandable, by contrast, was the rush of retribution which took him from one end of the pitch to the other, as the Manchester City striker celebrated scoring in the 4-2 win against his former club Arsenal.
