Ivory Coast secure late draw

Didier Drogba was among the goals as the Ivory Coast battled back from a two-goal deficit against Algeria to claim a 2-2 draw from their final Africa Cup of Nations group game this evening.

Pre-tournament favourites Ivory Coast, who had already qualified for the quarter-finals, began the contest slowly and conceded a penalty with six minutes on the clock.

However, Ryad Boudebouz failed to convert from 12 yards and the score remained level.

It wasn't until just after the hour mark when the deadlock was broken when on this occasion, Algeria did score from the spot. Arthur Boka was adjudged to have handled the ball inside the area and Valencia midfielder Sofiane Feghouli stepped up . . .
