20.45 GMT
38 min The resulting corner leads to another clash of heads. I didn’t see which players were involved but they’re both receiving treatment.

37 min That near miss has energised Ivory Coast, who suddenly look very dangerous again. Krasso chops back inside Encada on the left side of the area and rams a shot that is crucially blocked with his trailing leg by Djalo.

35 min: Fofana hits the bar! And it would have been another screamer. Bamba’s low cross was desperately cleared but only as far as Kessie. He surged past a couple of defenders and angled a terrific cutback to Fofana, unmarked on the edge of the area. Fofana slammed a first-time curler, not dissimilar to the goal – but this time Djoco fingertipped it onto the bar. That’s a brilliant save.

33 min A hopeful cross-shot from Semedo whistles well wide of the far post. There was no threat of an equaliser, but it’s another hint that Ivory Coast are starting to lose their way after a very good start.

29 min: Chance for Guinea-Bissau! Ivory Coast need to be careful here. A wretched square pass from Singo is nicked by Rodrigues, who flicks the ball round the corner to put Balde clear. He moves into the area but then, with Diomande coming across, screws a tame shot that is easily saved by Fofana.

22 min There’s a nasty clash between Bamba and Cassama, and the physios rush onto the field. I thought it was a clash of heads but the first replay showed that Bamba caught Cassama with his elbow.

20 min “Really looking forward to Junior Ze Turbo coming on as a substitute,” writes Kim Thonger. “He has, in my humble opinion, the finest footballing name OF ALL TIME.”

If he’s not a velocista, we might as well all pack up and go home.

19 min Boga shows an exhilarating change of pace to beat two players on the right. He cuts the ball back to Krasso, who knocks it well wide under pressure. He wanted a corner; the referee disagreed.

Midehi3 is it true? Please say no

41 min: Just wide from Krasso! Ivory Coast break superbly, four on four, with Bamba on the ball down the right. He slides an early low cross to Krasso, who stumbles and knocks the ball wide of the near post. The Ivory Coast players wanted a penalty for the challenge by Djalo, but there didn’t seem to be much in it. I’d like to see another replay to be sure, mind

This referee has plenty yellow cards o

Good

Maybe as the tournament progresses, the quality of play will improve.

This is not worthy of an AFCON Match.

The colourful Ivorian fans look more entertaining than the players.

Very boring March. Bring back my Premier league

Half time: Ivory Coast 1-0 Guinea-Bissau

The hosts are ahead after a mixed first half in Abidjan. Seko Fofana scored a terrific early goal and had a similar effort tipped onto the bar by Ouparine Djoco, but much of their attacking play was scruffy.

“Côte d’Ivoire have grown into the match, which feels odd to say considering their early goal,” writes Kári Tulinius. “What’s most impressed me is the variety of their attacks, crosses, through-balls, long-range shots and cutbacks have all featured so far. If the forwards adjust their sights, the Elephants could go far.”

I like that we can see the game completely differently and not call each other effs and cees
