Damage to Africa:
African football has taken a serious blow as South Africa get ready to host the World Cup. On the way to the African Cup of Nations, the Togo team bus was shot at and the driver was killed. The Togo squad had a decent chance of winning the tournament with Adebayor from Man-City and Salifou from Aston Villa their Premier League players. The Togo squad will probably go out of the tournament in protest despite it being played on. It raises worry about the World Cup in South Africa as the South African situation is similar to the Angolan one. Clubs are also worried about the players safety in this tournament
