Ivory Coast 2-0 Angola

Former Arsenal full-back Emmanuel Eboue is among the goals as Ivory Coast record a victory over Angola at the Africa Cup of Nations.

Goals from Emmanuel Eboue and Wilfried Bony saw Ivory Coast confirm their status as group leaders at the Africa Cup of Nations with a victory over Angola this evening.

The Elephants dominated the encounter throughout and eventually broke the deadlock with 31 minutes played. Bony was the creator, drilling in a cross for former Arsenal defender Eboue to convert at the back-post from close range.

Bony turned goalscorer after the break, capitalising on a mix-up between Massunguna and his goalkeeper Wilson to poke the ball into an unguarded net.

Ivory Coast, who are favourites to win the tournament, will face co-hosts Equatorial Guinea in the quarter-finals.

Angola have been knocked out of the competition as a result of this defeat.
