  2. NaomyFirstLady Says:

    These attacks didn’t kill only those players but even the essence of sport, football supposed to be fun…!! this is like the Egyptian scenario, who’s behind this??

  3. IloveAlgeria25 Says:

    that’s not football anymore, I think they a huge mistake by allowing Angola to organise this ACN it really doesn’t deserve it because the situation there still unstable especially in cabinda where there’s rebels furthermore african teams will play in that region as well, finally I hope that FIFA will rethink about organising the WC elsewhere because SA is not far from Angola and violence still exists there, I really feel sorry for the Angolian driver and his familly and togo team,peaaaaaaaaaaace

  7. yazidnm Says:

    during the world cup qualifiers, egyptian “terrorist” attacked the algerian team with stones and knifes, now this….what the fuck the fifa is doing?

  8. qorudwls Says:

    how can u say that to a person who almost got killed…..even tho u hate him ….u can’t say that…..u should respect the togo players…imagine that happened to u

  9. qorudwls Says:

    R.I.P
    for those who were killed from the attack…

  10. TucoZizou Says:

    whats going to happen now?
    who will be togos replacement?

  11. footballprovider90 Says:

    i guess there is no replacement. its too late for another team to come on the start of the tournament. and since the team that will come is not ready

  12. footballprovider90 Says:

    but at least when fifa sees death and the bodies are shown in all tvs fifa will start recognizing. egypt attack nothing shown much of death, just injuries

  13. footballprovider90 Says:

    Egyptian scenaio had no similarity to this and nobody died too.
    if many died it would be very sad and offensive

  14. footballprovider90 Says:

    i think that the torunamanet should have withdrawn after those attack who know what can happen at that city and other angolan cities. CAF Federation will have a big rsponsiblity and it may eliminate the chief of staff or many

  15. TucoZizou Says:

    oh yeah true
    i thought it could mean morocco would be in it as they were in the same group as Togo.
    Unless they were going to delay it by a few days.
    otherwise how would it work if there is one less team?

  16. mum206 Says:

    They would probably forfeit theyre matches what else can they do?

  17. stu3para Says:

    Do you think Adebayor ran the length of the bus to celebrate in front of the Gunners this time?

  18. NaomyFirstLady Says:

    @footballprovider90 , I’m not talking about the result of the attacks, but rather about the action itself, attacking players.

  19. afroguard Says:

    Do u guys have good home trining at all?

  20. afroguard Says:

    Thanks qorudwls. Evertonarescum is stupid.

  21. loconono1 Says:

    @evertonarescum

    Shut the FUCK UP

    BlueDipper

  22. evertonarescum Says:

    Or what? im just saying it how it is. internet tough guy

  23. mercuryband7 Says:

    how stupid r u provider90? after the bomb attack in london soon after london won bid to host in 2012 did any country withdrow from participating? fool!! shut it n keep ur opinion 2 yoursel ignorant.

  24. mercuryband7 Says:

    sorry for the family of those dead on the attack, but u cannot blame on hosts perhaps the Togo gavernment should take some responsibility by not buying a plane ticket to transport the players, if they ask angola for some money perhaps we would help them, hey llovealgeria25u r very ignorant! no even the so called first world can control every single terrorists move or where they attack!
