"I knew north London is red, but now I see Hong Kong is as well!" said Bacary Sagna when he was interviewed pitchside at the Kai Tak Sports Park before the final game of our Asia Tour on Thursday evening.
Bac was out on tour with the squad as one of our club legend ambassadors, and both he and Gilberto got a taste for the level of support we have in Hong Kong when they attended the supporters' club in town on the eve of the hotly anticipated match against our old rivals.
The two ex-players signed hundreds of autographs and posed for countless pictures before regaling the excited locals with stories from their playing career, and even recreating some of their favourite goal celebrations.
