![]() | Mantorras' Angola quit threat ![]() Pedro Mantorras (left) is rated at �53 million Angola's teenage sensation Pedro Mantorras has said he will not play in the Black Mamba's next match unless major organisational problems are sorted out. The Benfica striker lost two kilos in weight waiting for seven hours in an airport in South Africa when the team arrived for a friendly. The hold-up occurred because some members of the team had turned up without the correct visas. "I am not used to this type of thing happening," he growled. "I'm going back to Benfica and I'm not saying I won't play for Angola again but one thing is for sure, if this disorganisation continues I'll refuse my next call-up." "The federation responsible have to take care of all the details before arranging matches abroad." Mantorras has scored eight times this season for his club Benfica and has earned comparisons to Portugal legend Eusebio. | See also: Other top Cup of Nations stories: Links to more Cup of Nations stories are at the foot of the page. | ||
