“When I gave him what he wanted, I went to him, because I saw his bad look. I saw he wasn’t just for the watch. When I reached him, he walked away and pulled out a gun to shoot me. As he was shooting at me, I pushed him, hit the gun and he fired into the air, “Emerson continued.

“It was at that moment, when I pushed him, he lost his balance and a policeman shot him. Then, when he fired, he ran. We were in the square, 15 people more or less. And he started shooting somewhere -saan., but it didn’t hit anyone. 17 or 19 shotsif I’m not mistaken “, said the current Tottenham player.

Despite the drama of the situation, the footballer was always calm thanks to his faith in God: “I understood that this was a moment that could cost me my life, but it taught me to be careful with different situations. I am calm now. I say it’s thank God ”, ends his difficult story.
