Disaster Start to Africa Cup of Nations: Togo bus shot, players injured

This is not helping Africa.

Who is to blame? Obviously the “rebels” but also, to some extent, Togo – for making the players take the bus instead of flying.

Now will this sort of violence show up again during the tournament?

Either way, this is not good news for South Africa either.

How can the players perform with this kind of pressure? Simply tragic.
