Ivory Coast has the opportunity to lift the trophy in front of its audience! Emers Fae’s team defeated L.D. 1-0. of Congo and managed to secure their qualification to the final of the Africa Cup of Nations.
Return to the final for the Ivorians after 2015, when they also lifted the trophy, which was also the second in their history, while the Congolese will claim 3rd place in the minor final.
The game was balanced and with phases on both sides, but the… net did not move and 0-0 was the result of the half. With both coaches trying to look influential from the benches with their changes. In the end, it was Akti who found the lead, which they held until the end. It was the 65th minute, with Grandel crossing from the right and Alle with a terrific volley to finish off Bassi-Nzau for 1-0 amid wild celebrations from over 50,000 fans. And the score remained as it was until the final, with the home team celebrating like crazy their qualification to the grand final.
