They'll surely go second favourite with this performance, maybe they deserve to #1..

BARNES OUT
Drogba out could be a huge blow if they manage to get their way back into this one.

He was running at 30kph! Where else could he put his foot? Van der Sar rushed into him, not the other way around.Kweek said:

IC unlucky, couple of decent penalty shouts turned down

Was hoping the Ivorians could get through as the best African side. Ah well.

Ivory Coast desperately unlucky. Dominated the second half, created more chances and had a blatant penalty missed in the first half. Deserved at least a point and a shot at qualifying if Argentina won the Netherlands game.

How were they comfortable exactly? They spent the last 20 minutes pinned in their own half, Van Persie cleared one off the line, and they could have given away a couple of penalties. Ivory Coast didn't create many great scoring chances, but they only needed one goal after all, and they could easily have got it.Blaze said:
I feel sorry for Ivory Coast because they've played two sensational games with an admirable style that would have got them through in any other group, and lost both of them. Easily the most unlucky team so far. Doesn't really have anything to do with them being African, though I'd say if there is a general trend it'd be because African sides tend to play a very entertaining brand of football, so obviously people like watching them. Nobody's going to shed a tear if Angola or Tunisia miss out, but Ghana and IC certainly.
