Ivory Coast qualified for the
Africa Cup of Nations on Wednesday after a 0-0 draw with Cameroon, but a pitch
invasion at the full-time whistle sparked dramatic scenes, see photos of how they celebrated their victory after the cut.
Visitors Cameroon had Stephane
Mbia sent off just before the hour mark in Abidjan, and the match ended in
farcical circumstances with the Ivory Coast players simply passing the ball
around in defence as their opposition showed no desire to win possession.
At the full-time whistle Ivory
Coast fans ran onto the pitch to celebrate their side's qualification success,
with pictures emerging of supporters pulling the crossbar down at one end of
the pitch.
