WHERE IN COCK'S NAME IS TOGO AND WHAT DO THEY KNOW ABOUT FOOTBALL?

* Togo is a narrow strip of land between Ghana and, er, Benin, on the West Coast of Africa.
* They have a population of 5.1 million
* Three random facts: Their biggest export is cocoa, the official language is French, life expectancy of men is 52.
* Togo face South Korea, Switzerland and France in their world cup group. They were shock qualifiers, knocking out those footballing giants Senegal, Zambia and Mali.
* After a terrible African Nations Cup, they now have a German coach.
* Their star player is Arsenal centre forward, Adebayor.
* If they win the World Cup, I will run naked through the streets of the capital, Loma.
