Ade’s new look on life

Emmanuel Adebayor thought he was going to die during last month’s horrific gun attack on the Togo team bus during the African Cup of Nations in Angola. "I sent texts to my mum and dad saying 'I'm going to die',” revealed the Manchester City striker on BBC1's Football Focus on Saturday. "To explain what happened (on the coach) is difficult...you can't imagine the sound of the bullets. I have one more chance to be alive - but what God has given to you he can take back.” Two people died in the attack. Adebayor also revealed that his recent subdued goal celebrations are as a result of his changed outlook following the attack. "When I came back to Manchester City all the players were very nice to me - they gave me more confidence. But I have a different perspective on everything now. I'm happy to be alive.”
