Ivory Coast’s Chance to Reach the Round of 16

Ivory Coast have a real opportunity to make history in Dallas. After strong performances in AFCON 2023, the Elephants arrive with confidence and Premier League quality in Haller, Pepe, and Adingra. A win over Norway would secure their place in the Round of 16 for only the second time in their World Cup history. Coach Emerse Fae will rely on a solid midfield with Kessie and Seri to control tempo, while Adingra’s pace on the wing could trouble Norway’s backline. However, stopping Erling Haaland will be the biggest challenge. If Ivory Coast stay compact and take their chances, they can book a spot in the last 16 and keep African hopes alive in World Cup 2026
