00:10 [INAUDIBLE]
00:20 [MUSIC]
00:30 >> It's the cross in there, Jonathan Bamba, it falls.
00:39 >> That is wonderful.
00:41 [MUSIC]
00:42 >> Just in time too.
00:46 [MUSIC]
01:11 >> Dressau doubles the score here in Abidjan.
01:16 And Cotebois, a two goal lead.
01:19 Some individual skills and persistence there,
01:23 when perhaps other players might well have given up the ghost.
01:28 There is a look at it again.
01:30 [MUSIC]
01:33 >> Boulam of course came from Bamba, a little bit of hesitation there,
01:37 and look at it, he just kept going.
01:38 [MUSIC]
01:40 >> Up against Mendy, and he finds the back of the net.
01:44 And Ivory Coast are level.
01:46 And an enormous cheer comes out of this stadium,
01:49 and across the country.
01:51 And all the substitutes run off the bench to celebrate with KSDA.
01:55 >> See right there, what a wonderful penalty,
01:57 what a wonderful way to get back to the game.
01:59 And we definitely have a game on our hands now.
02:02 [MUSIC]
02:04 >> Tries to draw Ivory Coast level early on in the shootout,
02:08 and he does.
02:10 Into the bottom left hand corner, Mendy went the right way.
02:14 But that was a good penalty out of reach years ago.
02:19 [MUSIC]
02:21 >> Drumming tempo increases as Kouame finds the best of the net
02:26 to silence the drum.
02:28 The big Ivorian striker, can he give his side a lead
02:31 for the first time in the shootout? He can!
02:34 >> Great penalty from Boubou, very, very good play there.
02:37 Kept his composure there.
02:39 Oh, wow, that's a very, very good penalty.
02:41 [MUSIC]
02:49 >> And into the net it goes!
02:51 [MUSIC]
02:54 >> And the noise inside here just gets ever louder.
02:57 [MUSIC]
02:59 >> And Serge Aparte across the Ivory Coast.
03:03 If he can convert this one kick of the ball, and he does!
03:08 An Ivory Coaster through to the quarterfinals of the Africa Cup of Nations.
03:13 And Kessie has done it again.
03:16 [MUSIC]
03:21 >> Opening up for him, into the box they go.
03:24 Josh going to drop it into for Farnham.
03:26 It doesn't break free, but it does now!
03:28 [MUSIC]
03:30 >> Into the net.
03:32 And it was nicely laid back to for Farnham.
03:34 And he hit it very well, and then it just ricocheted,
03:37 and it fell so right to me.
03:40 But Simon Odinga, and he wasn't going to make any mistake with that
03:45 because Chigi Jara had committed himself to the initial shot.
03:49 And it is tapped from Ali.
03:52 An Ivory Coaster level, and there was surely less time management.
03:56 This is what you got here, Aparte.
03:58 [MUSIC]
04:03 >> And in the very, very last moment,
04:06 they have delivered the killer knockout blow.
04:10 [MUSIC]
04:15 >> And then we're here, a delightful little flick.
04:18 [MUSIC]
04:23 >> And it's a goal.
04:25 [MUSIC]
04:30 >> Definitely the all-around, what a momentous flick there.
04:34 >> I think he's been sent off as well because he's got a second yellow
04:37 for removing his shirt.
04:39 He's going to be out of this semifinal, which they're surely going to get to.
04:43 [MUSIC]
04:48 >> And the stadium, the arena.
