Blatter wants Angola shooting report

FIFA President Sepp Blatter wants a full report from the African Football Confederation over the shooting of the Togo team bus in Angola.

The Togo team bus was attacked by unknown gunmen while they were traveling to their base in Carbinda ahead of the African Cup of Nations group games. The driver was killed while nine others were wounded.

FIFA issued a statement on their website saying they "are deeply moved by today's incidents which affected Togo's national team".

Blatter also expects a  full report from CAF and its President, Issa Hayatou, on the situation.

It is not known yet how this security issue will impact the FIFA World Cup finals in South Africa later in June.
