00:00Goporo, the 16-year-old, gets us underway.
00:09Wabuwe Dumbia, one of several ASIC Mimosas players here tonight,
00:14with the ball in hand, goes up to number 19, Tape Tuwali.
00:20Now, Moes Diarra Basuba.
00:25You can see immediately that there's going to be quite a physical battle
00:28in the middle of the park.
00:31Two imposing teams.
00:34Up wide now to the number 3, Yuan Amolondoko.
00:39Starts again from Sheikh Malo.
00:42Across, all the way to a free head.
00:46And he should have done more with that.
00:50But Tape Tuwali couldn't direct his header on target.
00:53An innocent player from that time.
00:55But look at that neat play through the channels.
00:59Senzinko Behi goes to the top.
01:01Oh, it's an easy goal.
01:05Straight away the Ivory Coast are ahead.
01:10And the pedigree shining through.
01:14Alinho Hadara, the FC Iman striker.
01:20And he's only too happy to oblige after all that excellent work from Senzinko Behi.
01:25And the goal is in.
01:28And it's a goal.
01:31And it's a goal.
01:34Oh, it's unforgiving though, isn't it?
01:40That ball just bypassing the defenders.
01:43He used his pace to get around the defender.
01:46And exactly into the right area.
01:49And a number 9 doing what a number 9 does best.
01:52Scoring the goal that counts.
01:55Hadara with the goal.
01:57And it's 1-0 to the Ivory Coast.
02:01And already we've seen that bear fruit.
02:03And we might see it again here.
02:05Yes, Sheikh Malo going straight for goal.
02:07It's well saved but it comes back out to the Ivory Coast.
02:09They could get another bite.
02:17Trying to cut it back onto his favoured left foot.
02:21He's full of tricks. Oh, it's brilliant.
02:26Moving out and his predatory instincts.
02:29Trying to get the better of the wild beast.
02:31And here he is again, Hadara.
02:37Oh, we thought it was going to be.
02:39He might still get another chance.
02:42And that should be easily caught by Chris.
02:44That should be easily caught by Chris Kwasi.
02:47And immediately he looks to get the strikers away.
02:49What a pass that is.
02:52Oh, that's absolutely excellent.
02:55Hadara is in again.
02:57Oh, what a strike that is.
03:02It's simply sensational.
03:04From the goalkeeper to the attacker.
03:08And before you know it, it's 2-0 to the Ivory Coast.
03:20And just showing why they are such a feared nation in this tournament.
03:26Côte d'Ivoire running rampant here.
03:29And Alino Hadara has his second.
03:32It was all about the work from Moïse Diarrasouba.
03:41But before that even, goalkeeper Chris Kwasi.
03:43He can almost be credited with an assist.
03:50Had enough time to take his position.
03:53Look up.
03:55And struck the ball into the bottom left-hand corner of Giovanni Guidaznet.
04:05Absolutely sublime goal.
04:08Is over the ball.
04:09Here is the left-back.
04:10He goes to the top of the box.
04:11Should be a chip ball in.
04:13And straight...
04:14Oh, that is...
04:20And now they're through again.
04:21The Ivory Coast.
04:22This should be three.
04:27And the flag...
04:29Does go up to save the...
04:31So it will be straight at goal.
04:33And it is a goal.
04:36You shouldn't be beaten from there.
04:39But Koelyon Mobiot...
04:42Has his.
04:44And Ivory Coast's third of the night.
04:52Straight through the hands of Guidaznet.
04:57It looks like he's been hit by a freight train.
04:59Such is the expression.
05:03Proverbial at that, but...
05:08Well, he definitely went for goal.
05:09He saw the gap.
05:13Didn't give the goalkeeper a second thought.
05:16To cause any more issue.
05:18But they might do so without even trying.
05:21Diarra Souba...
05:22Driving forward again.
05:26The ball over the wall.
05:27On target.
05:31Here's Haidara.
05:33Oh, and the wall does do its job.
05:37Bigimal...
05:39Fourth official in a recent World Cup qualifier.
05:41Between Gedi Bissau and Burkina Faso.
05:49And also just looking at that free kick.
05:54Well, there were appeals for a handball.
05:56And I have to say...
05:58They were merited.
06:02Might benefit...
06:05The Ivory Coast even further.
06:10Well, he thought the wall did its job.
06:13But it did so illegally.
06:16And...
06:17It looks like...
06:19A bang-on penalty kick.
06:28There we go.
06:30And the roars of the crowd.
06:33A big Ivorian fanbase here.
06:36In the wall with the hand illegally.
06:39And now he has a chance with a penalty kick.
06:41Against a substitute goalkeeper.
06:43Ousmane Bigimal.
06:45Here's Haidara.
06:47He's saved at first.
06:49But it goes in for his hat-trick.
06:55And the game...
06:57Is long out of sight.
06:59As the mercurial number 9...
07:02Makes it Ivory Coast 4.
07:06The Central African Republic 0.
07:08And we haven't even reached half-time yet.
07:11The Central African Republic...
07:13With 10 men.
07:15Diabate...
07:17Just urging humility.
07:22A deep breath.
07:24Gets the right way, Bigimal.
07:26You have to credit...
07:28The 16-year-old.
07:31And in fact...
07:34With some stronger hands...
07:37He may have even saved it.
07:41The academy player...
07:44Outdone...
07:45Alp thought.
07:47Coming infield again.
07:49Goberji might come through again.
07:51And it's just a shaved outside the right.
07:53Now looking across the line.
07:55Well that's fantastic.
07:57Molotndoko.
07:59And they might have a strike.
08:01Oh, it's brilliant.
08:03Look, Rebert Olun.
08:07That's what we've come to see.
08:15They are not dead and buried just yet.
08:18The wild beasts...
08:20Have roared back to life.
08:26And you know what?
08:29It just makes the game...
08:32That much more enjoyable.
08:34That ball across...
08:36By Molotndoko.
08:37Came back into a dangerous area.
08:41And Lucret Betelum...
08:43With a side foot.
08:46And that's an excellent finish.
08:49Taken again by Molotndoko.
08:51But that's not quite the delivery...
08:53That will cause any issues.
08:55And there is the halftime whistle.
08:58A thoroughly entertaining half...
09:00Of football here in the U17.
09:02Then resulted in a penalty kick.
09:05And we are back underway...
09:07After all the drama...
09:09Of that first half.
09:10Ivory Coast of course...
09:12Leading 4-1.
09:14And as they stand...
09:16Are propelled right to the very top...
09:18Of Group D.
09:20...Plays it to Zahid.
09:23Aguai to Vabu Dumbia.
09:25Decent cross in.
09:27Might still drop.
09:29To Ali...
09:31Has earned a side.
09:32A free kick.
09:40Well you have to say...
09:41It was coming already.
09:46It was very nearly a penalty.
09:52And she has given a penalty.
09:55The tackle was inside the area.
10:02Well we did think...
10:03That it might be the case.
10:07And there was the first contact.
10:10Difficult to see.
10:14Because the Ivorian player...
10:16Was coming.
10:23Massive stoppages in play here.
10:28And she has gone...
10:30To the video assistance referee...
10:32For some help.
10:34VAR definitely going to get involved here.
10:36But just like...
10:38The penalty at the end of the first half.
10:41It's unlikely.
10:42Penalty for Haidara.
10:47Looking to fool Binguyal.
10:49And he does.
10:52And he gets his fourth of the night.
10:56Haidara on fire.
11:00The Ivory Coast...
11:03Absolutely pummeling their way...
11:05Through the Central African Republic.
11:11What a result this is.
11:17But you have to say...
11:18It was coming after that...
11:19Sending off.
11:22And once again...
11:23Ousmane Binguyal...
11:24Dived the right way.
11:26An unfortunate penalty...
11:27To give away.
11:29But after that...
11:30Video assistance referee...
11:34Decision.
11:36Absolutely spot on.
11:38And a penalty...
11:39Into the top left hand corner of the net.
11:41Gives Ivory Coast...
11:43That four goal cushion...
11:44That they so desperately craved.
11:45Once again.
11:51Scorer for the...
11:53Central African Republic.
11:54And comes back out to Haidara.
11:56He looks through...
11:57Trying to turn Provider.
12:01They still have the ball.
12:02Here's Haidara.
12:05And now he's giving it away.
12:07A wide first touch for Bamba.
12:10Bamba again.
12:14Another one of those who...
12:16Still very much desperate for a goal.
12:22They've all been having bites at it.
12:25Unable to...
12:27Do what their...
12:29Countryman has done.
12:30But they might do so now.
12:31There we go.
12:33And now...
12:34So now...
12:35There we go.
12:42And we did say...
12:43We did say that...
12:44Tapetuali...
12:46Deserved a mention.
12:48The number 19...
12:51Has been all over...
12:53The Wild Beasts defence.
12:57And there he gets himself...
12:58In the right position...
12:59At the right time.
13:05Well, there's not really much...
13:07Wrong that Osman Bingimal has done...
13:10Since coming on as a substitute.
13:16And again, there's not really anything...
13:17That he could have done there.
13:21A calm finish...
13:22By Tapetuali.
13:25And the soar man has his goal.
13:28And the Ivory Coast have 6 for the night.
13:32A goal difference of 5...
13:33Straight away in Group D.
13:39Hooked through...
13:40And they've got the overlap...
13:41They've got the numbers...
13:42Looking for a 7th goal here.
13:43Ivory Coast!
13:45And somehow he's missed it...
13:46To Ali Di...
13:47With a 5 goal difference.
13:52A hat-trick.
13:53In fact, 4 goals...
13:55For Ailino Haidara.
13:57Including 2 penalties.
14:00Koyo Mobio...
14:01Also with a free kick.
14:02And Tapetuali...
14:04With a goal in the second half.
14:05Just the one consolation...
14:07From Anand Otto.
