The Cote d?Ivoire played their first international game against Dahomey on 13th April, 1960 and it was an encounter The Elephants won by three goals to two. The Ivory Coast took a little while to get their bearings right in order to make their mark on the international stage. They have played in one Confederations Cup and in a total of nineteen African Cup of Nations. The Ivory Coast have been crowned African champions once.
The start of the 2000?s signaled upturn in their fortunes and the Cote d?Ivoire qualified for the World Cup for the first time in 2006. That put the country on the map and they made it back for the next edition of soccer?s biggest tournament. The Ivory Coast?s qualification for the World Cup in Brazil was sealed in November 2013 and they finished their qualification campaign unbeaten.
The Ivory Coast has recently produced some of the most technically gifted players in Africa who have then gone on to represent clubs that are among the most famous in the world. Didier Drogba won the UEFA Champions League, three league titles and four FA Cups with English giants Chelsea.
Yaya Toure was instrumental in helping Barcelona become the first club in the world to win six trophies in a single year. He then joined Manchester City and has since won one league title and the FA Cup. Kolo Toure is Yaya Toure?s older brother and he has won two league titles and three FA Cups playing for Arsenal and Manchester City. He now represents Liverpool FC who are having their best season in years and Kolo has been one of the most important parts of the cog in their rise to prominence after a long drought.
The Cote d?Ivoire will be taken very seriously by other teams in the World Cup. They have the talent to hurt even the biggest of names in the tournament. They have gone as far as the First Round in their last two outings so will be looking to improve on that this year. It should not come as a surprise to anyone if they better that record by a big margin.
