Bravo Togo team!



What is the world coming to? Even football players are shot at, to be killed! 

The Togo players, who were going to take part in the Africa Cup of Nations, were shot at on Friday, January 8, 2010 in Cabinda, Angola. They did no harm to anyone. Three people died - the driver of the bus the players were travelling in, an assistant team coach and the team spokesperson . The goalkeeper was seriously injured. Eight others were wounded. A separatist group, Forces for Liberation of the State of Cabinda has claimed responsibility.

If the attack on the innocent people was not sad enough, the Confederation of the African Football Nations, has disqualified the Togo team, from taking part in the competition, just because, the Togo team had left for home, in fear, and had subsequently, without thinking, said they were withdrawing. The team, in reality, was in a state of confusion and uncertainty. When, later, they decided to play, instead of praising and commending them, for their commitment to the world of sport, and accepting them back with gratitude, the Confederation had disqualified them! How sad for the Togolese people! How heartbreaking for the world!

Readers’ comments are welcome, whether, the Togo football team should have been allowed to play. Was the African Football Confederation correct, in disqualifying the Togo team?
