International career
He is an international football player[1] and played the 2010 Africa Cup of Nations in Angola.[2]
He became notable in the 2010 African Cup of Nations during the game against Benin, when he came to collect a routine overhit pass and made a bizarre attempt at a salto whilst gathering the ball. Whilst he narrowly avoided conceding a goal, he injured his neck in the process. The incident has become a minor YouTube hit.

gollark: I see.
gollark: It's apparently possible to see what people are seeing by reading their brain activity in an MRI scanner now, but those are hardly conducive to sleep and dreams probably don't use the same hardware.
gollark: Dream journal things, plausibly.
