Cote d’Ivoire head coach, Emerse Fae has said he will provide a winning formula for his side’s clash with the Super Eagles of Nigeria.

The Elephants will face the Super Eagles in the final of the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations at the Alassanne Quattara Stadium, Ebimpe, Abidjan on Sunday.

The hosts recorded a hard-earned 1-0 victory against the Leopards of Democratic Republic of Congo in their semi-final clash on Sunday.

They are now just one match away from replicating their 1992 and 2015 success.

“Tomorrow, we have a great opportunity to keep the trophy at home. We know that when you organize a tournament, it is difficult to go on and win it,” Fae said during his interaction with the media at the Palacais de la culture, Trechville, Abidjan on Saturday.

“We have made the final and tomorrow, we have the opportunity to achieve this feat and at the same time, add a third star to the orange jersey of Côte d’Ivoire.”

The Super Eagles defeated Cote d’Ivoire 1-0 when both teams met in the group stage earlier in the competition.

The highly anticipated encounter will kick-off at 9pm Nigeria time.
