Ivory Coast dominate Czech Republic and join England in final
Ivory Coast beat Czech Republic (2-1) and will face England in the final of the Toulon Tournament 2017.
Ivory Coast made a very strong start and were rewarded early in the game, After only three minures, Amani scored the opener after a brilliant work from Loba. Even if Czech Republic equalized thanks to Novotny (22'), Ivory Coast took the advantage physically and dominated this first period. After a good ball recovery in the midfield, Dakoi gave the ball to Krasso who has shown his dribbling skills to eliminate the defender and score the second goal for the Ivorians.
Then, the second half was goalless but Ivory Coast continued to dominate the match and created themselves several big opportunities to add another goal. Ivory Coast will face England in the final to try to win their second Toulon Tournament of their history. The Jan Suchoparek's men are going to try to finish the championship on a good note with the third place game against Scotland, next Saturday.
