Eritrea national football team players line up for a team photo just before the start of the FIFA World cup qualifying match at Francistown's Stadium on October 13, 2015. Ten footballers from Eritrea's national squad have sought political asylum in Botswana after playing in a qualifying match for the 2018 World Cup, an Eritrean non-governmental organisation said October 16. The players were part of the national team -- known as the Red Sea Camels -- that lost 3-1 to Botswana in Francistown on October 13.
