The younger brother of the Manchester City midfielder and Liverpool defender died on the same day Ivory Coast played out their 2-1 defeat to Colombia in World Cup Group C.
A
team's spokesman confirmed that the brothers have decided to stay at
the World Cup where they will take on Russia in the hopes of
solidifying their advancement to the second rounds of the 2014 World
Cup in Brazil.
May his
soul rest in peace, praying for the entire Toure family in this very
hard time.
