Reports have emerged that the Togo national team bus has been machine-gunned by Angolan rebels on the Congolese border.

The squad includes Manchester City striker Emmanuel Adebayor (top right).

Three Togo players and the bus driver are reported to have been injured.

"I am fine but several players are in a bad way," Nantes striker Thomas Dossevi is reported to have old Radio Monte Carlo.

"We are still at hospital. We were attacked like dogs and had to hide for 20 minutes under the seats to avoid the bullets."

Machine-gunned. Bloody nightmare. They were lucky to get away with their lives. Begs the question why, when they were passing through the Angolan border - which is not known for it's hospitality - were they not escorted?
