"Manchester United winger Amad Diallo scored one and made one in a dominant first half as the Elephants cruised to victory in Marrakech. Four of the previous seven meetings between the sides had ended in draws but Amad was in no mood to extend that sequence. He drove in the opener before setting up the second for Yan Diomande, with Bazoumana Toure adding a third late on."
"The opener was a superb solo effort from Diallo, who danced his way past three defenders before a fortunate deflection allowed him to lift the ball over the goalkeeper and into the roof of the net. Amad's trickery on the right wing then ended with a low cross that was cleverly left by Franck Kessie and the ball reached Diomande, who side-footed into the net from 18 yards."
Ivory Coast advanced to an Africa Cup of Nations quarter-final against Egypt after a convincing win over Burkina Faso in Marrakech. Amad Diallo produced a standout first-half performance, driving in the opener and providing the assist for Yan Diomande's finish. The opening goal involved a solo run past three defenders and a fortunate deflection that carried the ball over the goalkeeper. Ivory Coast finished the match with 21 shots, and Bazoumana Toure scored a late goal at the near post on 87 minutes. Ivory Coast will face Egypt in Agadir, a repeat of the 2006 final.
