Mohamed Abdel Kader Coubadja Touré or Muhammad Abdul Qadar Coubadja Touré (born April 8, 1979 in Sokode) is a Togolese football striker. A Togo international, he helped them reach the 2006 World Cup, their first World Cup ever. Kader Mohamed's star rose in his home country after he scored the late winner in the 1998 African Cup of Nations match against Ghana, thus securing Togo’s first ever win at the tournament. The forward later played in the 2000 and 2002 editions, as well as featuring in Togo's disappointing campaign in Egypt this year.
After starting out with Etoile Filante de Lome, he left Togo for CA Bizertin (Tunisia) before landing at AC Parma in Italy in 1998, from where he had loan spells at clubs in Switzerland, Egypt and Italy. In 2003/4 he scored 19 goals in 35 matches for Swiss outfit Servette and was elected best Togolese player abroad. On June 13, 2006, he scored Togo's first ever World Cup goal in their first group match against Korea Republic, with a well taken finish. Kader currently plays for Guingamp in France.
