Drogba makes Ivory Coast threat
Didier Drogba has threatened to stop playing for the Ivory Coast following the reaction of fans to their World Cup qualifying defeat to Cameroon.
The Ivory Coast players were insulted and threatened by some fans after losing 3-2 to Cameroon in Abidjan.
Drogba told French television channel TF1: "If such events should occur (again), I`d no longer take the risk to come and play for the national team."
The Chelsea stirker scored both his team`s goals against Cameroon.
Cameroon will now qualify if they win their last match, a home fixture with Egypt, who have no chance of qualification.
The Ivory Coast must win their final fixture away to Sudan in Omdurman the day before and then wait to hear Cameroon`s result.
Drogba has looked impressive in Chelsea`s perfect start to the season, scoring three goals in their opening five league games.
Drogba, 27, was born in the Ivory Coast but spent most of his childhood in France and has dual nationality.
