Ivory Coast make the last 16

Ivory Coast easily beat Benin to assume a firm stranglehold of Group B.

Captain Didier Drogba opened the scoring on 40 minutes when he was put through by Yaya Toure.

Toure then converted a cross from brother Kolo Toure four minutes later before Kader Keita pounced on a defensive error on 52 minutes.

Aruna Dindane converted the fourth just after the hour while Razak Omatoyossi's injury-time header was Benin's second ever Africa Cup of Nations' goal.

Ivory Coast 4. Benin 1.

RE: Ivory Coast make the last 16

any idea as to when the african nations cup is giving over and when the players such as toure and drogba will make their return to the premiership. i think they can really make a difference in both sides of the world. ivory coast could go all the way as well
