Ivory Coast has made a significant decision following their disappointing performance at the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON). The country’s football federation announced the dismissal of coach Jean-Louis Gasset and his assistant Ghislain Printant due to unsatisfactory results. This move comes in the aftermath of Ivory Coast’s staggering 4-0 defeat against Equatorial Guinea, marking their heaviest home loss in history.
The Elephants, despite being the AFCON hosts, find themselves in a precarious situation after becoming the first host team to lose two group stage matches since 1984. Nonetheless, they still cling to faint hopes of advancing to the last 16 as one of the best third-placed teams. In the interim, Emerse Fae, a member of Gasset’s coaching staff, will take charge of the team.
The abrupt termination of Gasset’s tenure serves as a dramatic development, casting a shadow over Ivory Coast’s prospects in the ongoing tournament. As AFCON’s global audience watches these events unfold, the fate of the Ivory Coast national team hangs in the balance.
