It was a night to celebrate for the Ivory Coast on Tuesday as Senegal’s Africa Cup of Nations hopes went up in flames in Yamoussoukro during a dramatic penalty shootout following a 1-1 stalemate after extra time.
Our captain Kalidou Koulibaly turned in a commanding performance and led by his example as the first Senegal penalty-taker, duly converting from the spot with aplomb.
The Africa Cup of Nations is a competition that brings people together. We wish all the sides still involved the very best of luck.
May the best team win!
