The tragedy of Marc-Vivien Foé, soccer's forgotten hero

The tragedy of Marc-Vivien Foé's death hits much harder at his gravesite. It overlooks a soccer field, but not the kind the late Cameroon and Manchester City player wanted. When Foé collapsed on a field while playing for his country at FIFA's Confederations Cup in 2003 and died in an awful moment for world soccer, he was in the process of building a sports complex and school in the eastern outskirts of his hometown of Yaounde.
