The hosts are not yet out of competition but face a nervous wait to find out if they'll qualify for the last 16 by virtue of being one of the best third-placed teams in the group stages. After their three games, Ivory Coast are third in Group A on three points but with a minus-three goal difference. Seri and his countrymen will be watching the remaining group stage games intently over the next 48 hours to see if their three points will be enough to see them secure safe passage, with their fate decided by Wednesday evening. Should that not happen and the hosts are eliminated, Seri would return to East Yorkshire and be available for City's next Championship match against Millwall at the MKM Stadium on Saturday week, and while going out early would be a major blow to Seri, it would be a timely boost for Liam Rosenior and the Tigers.
