50'
So two magnificent chances squandered by Ivory Coast, both of them headers. They look well up for it at the start of this half. Much more urgency.
49'
CHANCE! Foul on Zaha by Kabananga gives Ivory Coast an early opportunity. In it comes from Gradel and it’s a free header planted wide by the unmarked Deli!
48'
Kessie forges into the box with a strong early run but goes down far too easily. Certainly no penalty claim. Just bundled out of it.
47'
Next goal crucial for either side. Whoever scores become big favourites.

Deli comes on for Traore for Ivory Coast.

2nd Half

Back underway here at Stade d’Oyem and what a half in prospect. Ivory Coast need at least one goal now or face a tricky final game with progression out of their own hands.

HALF TIME: Ivory Coast 1-2 DR Congo
45+1'
Just the one additional minute as Gbohouo sprints out to clear. Good keeping.
45'
Ivory Coast with a late corner. Gradel takes and Kanon’s header flicked on by Aurier before Matampi claims.
44'
The game has had a nice flow to it and been well refereed. Won’t be too much time added on.

SHOTS ON TARGET: Ivory Coast 2-2 DR Congo
41'
Bony wins a free kick. Aurier hits it from distance but comfortable enough for Matampi.
40'
Ivory Coast enjoying more of the ball at the moment but DR Congo clinical in the area.
39'
Kabananga already emerging as one of the players of the tournament. Having a blinder today.
38'
DR Congo’s success coming from great early service into the box. Causing all sorts of trouble.
37'
36'
A lovely touch from Gradel to Kessie and he forces a corner. In it comes from Gradel and the header is blocked. Good defending.
35'
Amazing how certain fixtures throw up goals. This is already a cracker and all the makings of a classic.
