´óÏó´«Ã½

Ten years ago, the Togo football team's bus was attacked as they travelled to the 2010 Africa Cup of Nations in Angola. A rebel group opened fire on their convoy which resulted in two deaths.

The team had become caught up in the political situation in Angola, a country that - back then - had recently emerged from three decades of civil war.

On the bus was Emmanuel Adebayor then Togo’s star player, who played for Manchester City in the English Premier League. The ´óÏó´«Ã½â€™s Matthew Kenyon was in Angola covering the tournament for the ´óÏó´«Ã½ and spoke to the striker soon after the attack:
