LOME, June 13 (Reuters) - Emmanuel Adebayor appeared set to play for Togo in Sunday's African Nations Cup qualifier against Liberia despite turning up late for pre-match preparations, officials said.
The Tottenham Hotspur striker was accused of a lack of discipline by new coach Tom Saintfiet when he failed to pitch at the start of pre-match preparations almost a fortnight ago.
Saintfiet said he would not tolerate players who did not adhere to the rules but on Wednesday, some 10 days after the squad first got together to begin preparations, Adebayor finally pitched for practice and was allowed to join up with the rest of the squad.
