Ivory Coast stars Yaya and Kolo Toure were mourning the death of their brother Ibrahim after he was found dead in Manchester, the country's football federation announced.
Ibrahim, 28, who was also a footballer plying his trade with Al Safa in Lebanon, passed away just hours after Ivory Coast lost 2-1 to Colombia in Brazil.
He had reportedly been suffering from cancer and had received chemotherapy at a hospital in Manchester, where Yaya plays for Premier League champions Manchester City.
"A tough day for the Toure brothers. Just hours after the match Colombia v Cote d'Ivoire (2-1), Kolo and Yaya learned of the death of their younger brother Toure Oyala Ibrahim," the Ivorian Football Federation said in a statement.
