Adebayor rages at controversial goal

Emmanuel Adebayor accused Martin Atkinson of ruining Tottenham’s FA Cup dreams and then claimed the lack of goal-line technology in football is “killing the game” after last night’s controversial semi-final defeat to Chelsea at Wembley.

Tottenham were thrashed 5-1 by their rivals yesterday, but their task was made much harder when Atkinson allowed Juan Mata’s ’ghost goal’ to stand despite the fact that Benoit Assou-Ekotto cleared the Spaniard’s shot before it crossed the line.
