Fans across the United Kingdom and elsewhere watched the Group E clash on Thursday. Ivory Coast started Bonny from Inter Milan and Kossounou of Atalanta in defence and midfield. They opened the scoring in the first half, added one second goal ahead of the break and finished the game with a late strike to win 2‑1. It ended 2‑1.
BBC provided live commentary and one panel of pundits for the full ninety minutes. When that final whistle blew, Yahoo Sports Canada launched a poll for fans to rate the Curaçao players straight away.
