Ivory Coast’s Remarkable Redemption: From Brink of Elimination to Afcon Semis

Ivory Coast is on the verge of an improbable redemption story at the Africa Cup of Nations reaching the semi-finals after a dramatic turnaround. Initially facing the prospect of an early exit on home soil, they secured a place in the knockout stage after Ghana’s late collapse against Mozambique.

Despite their head coach being sacked following a heavy defeat, assistant coach Emerse Fae took charge leading the team to crucial victories with late comebacks. The sense of destiny is growing but Ivory Coast acknowledges the need for improved performances as they face the Democratic Republic of Congo in the semi-final.

Fae emphasizes the importance of controlling the match rather than relying on comebacks. While the team has shown resilience, they now face a strong opponent in DR Congo known as the Leopards with intriguing dynamics for the semi-final clash.
