In triangle $\triangle ABC$, $AB<AC$, $M,D,E$ are the midpoints of $BC$, the arcs $BAC$ and $BC$ of the circumcircle of $\triangle ABC$ respectively. The incircle of $\triangle ABC$ touches $AB$ at $F$, $AE$ meets $BC$ at $G$, and the perpendicular to $AB$ at $B$ meets segment $EF$ at $N$. If $BN=EM$, prove that $DF$ is perpendicular to $FG$.
