7781102THERE’S shooting at the Africa Cup of Nations in Angola. With bullets. The gunmen are firing at the Togo football team, as their bus drove through Cabinda. Two players are wounded. The drive is killed.

Manchester City striker Emmanuel Adebayor is “shaken by the terrible events”. He is “unharmed”.

Midfielder Alaixys Romao tells RMC Togo:

“No-one wants to play. We’re not capable of it. We’re thinking first of all about the health of our injured because there was a lot of blood on the ground.”

Togo. Or not Togo?

Meanwhile, snow stops game in England. Grumble, mumble, curse…
