Arsenal of England striker, Sheyi Adebayor has rescinded his decision not to feature for the Hawks of Togo in this weekend’s crucial 2010 World Cup/Nations Cup qualifying encounter against Swaziland in Accra Ghana.
A big win for any team on the day would see them climb top of the group and automatically qualify for the next phase of the competition.
In an interview with BBCSports.com, Adebayor stated that he was very unhappy with the manner the Togolese Football Federation (TFF) has been treating him, but his love for his country transcends his personal feelings.
"This is a very important game for the future of football in my country and that's why I have put aside my concerns," The lanky Arsenal striker told the website
"We played at the World Cup in Germany and we should have used that opportunity to improve the administration of the game in Togo.
"Yet the problem over the bad treatment of the players and coaches by the federation still persists and as the captain of the team I won't turn the blind eye."
"There is enough time from now until the next phase of the qualifiers for these issues to be addressed so that the future of Togo football can be secured," he added
Adebayor however believes the Hawks can defeat the Southern Africans heavily and cruise to the next phase of the qualifying campaign.
"We respect Swaziland and what they have achieved in recent times but we will stop them on Sunday," Adebayor said.
"It is important for us to beat them massively so that we can qualify for the next stage and we will deliver." he added
