Ivory Coast Clinches Historic AFCON Title Amidst Coaching Changes

Ivory Coast secured a historic AFCON title after a challenging journey narrowly advancing from the group stage and undergoing a mid-tournament coaching change. Assistant coach Emerse Faé who took over from Jean-Louis Gasset played a crucial role in leading the team to victory.

Football veteran Wael Gomaa attributes the success not only to Faé but also to the motivational influence of country legend Didier Drogba. Gomaa acknowledges the players’ resilience and spirit considering the win well deserved and historic for Ivory Coast.

Looking ahead, Gomaa expresses hopes for Hossam Hassan to lead Egypt to victory in the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations. Additionally, he extends best wishes to Morocco emphasizing that both nations deserve success.
