AFCON: Defending Champions Ivory Coast Crash Out Without A Win

African Cup of Nations (AFCON) defending Champions, Ivory Coast have crashed out of the tournament at the group stages without managing one win.

In their last Group D encounter against Morocco, Rachid Alioui’s wonder goal condemned Ivory Coast to defeat and meant that Congo and Morocco qualify from the group.

Despite Ivory Coast needing a win to keep their chances of progressing to the next round alive, much of their play was sloppy and uninspiring. The Elephants created just two chances throughout the match and will know that they really did not deserve to get anything from the match.
