Arsenal captain Granit Xhaka says he "reached boiling point" following repeated threats to his wife and daughter, as he explained his angry confrontation with fans.
The Swiss midfielder was booed while he walked off the pitch at Emirates Stadium, prompting him to cup his ear.
In an emotional statement, he said he had been "hurt deeply" by comments on social media and at matches recently.
They included 'Kill your wife' and 'Wish that your daughter gets cancer'.
Breaking his silence for the first time since the incident, Xhaka, said he got "carried away" and reacted "disrespectfully" to fans.
