Senegalese sports minister among injured in Africa Cup of Nations riot

Up to 30 people, including Senegalese Sports Minister El Hadji Malick Gakou, were injured after riots broke out during a 2013 Africa Cup of Nations qualifier in Dakar.

The second leg of the tie between Senegal and Ivory Coast had to be abandoned minutes from the end after
crowd trouble erupted, which saw missiles thrown on the pitch and small fires started in the stands at Stade Leopold Senghor.The Elephants were ahead 2-0 on the night, thanks to Didier Drogba's double, with the
Teranga Lions trailing 6-2 on aggregate, before the match was called to a premature halt.
"He [Gakou] has been hurt by a stone and was evacuated," a doctor was quoted as saying by AFP. "We had three cases of wounds that required stitches, and four or five cases of discomfort or pain. But there were no serious injuries, people were not trampled."
