Togo's Kodjovi Obilale undergoes rehabilitation in an hospital in Lorient, Brittany, Tuesday Sept.21, 2010. Terrorist bullets shattered his spine, football's indifference shattered his faith. "It's a rotten world," says Kodjovi Obilale, the once strapping but now crippled goalkeeper left wheelchair-bound by the attack on Togo's bus at the Africa Cup of Nations.
