    The Ivory Coats boasts the largest church in the world.

    The only Olympic gold ever won by the Ivory Coast was in Taekwondo at Rio 2016 by Cheick Sallah Cisse.

    It is the world’s largest cocoa producer.

    It has two capitals. Yamoussoukro is the nation’s political capital while Abidjan is its economic capital and the largest city.

    Abidjan is the city with the third biggest French speaking population anywhere in the world after Paris and Kinshasa.

    It is home to the only primary rainforest left in West Africa.

    Ivory Coast has a vertically striped orange, white and green flag. The three stripes represent the national motto, “Unity, discipline, labour” while orange represents dynamic national growth, white the peace, purity and unity of all citizens and green hope for the future.

    Didier Drogba is also credited with playing a pivotal role in helping to end the Ivorian civil war by making an impassioned speech to the camera during an international match with Sudan in 2005 which resulted in a cease-fire. Following the World Cup Qualifier, Drogba addressed a camera crew and pleaded with aggressors in Ivory Coast to “please lay down your weapons and hold elections… we want to have fun, so stop firing your guns.”

    Loquacious bugger
    That unnecessarily long read could have been halved if you’d just used the 24hr clock
    ….but oh no, you have to have your moment in the sunshine by stringing it all out.

    Haven't heard Martin Tyler/ Alan Smith commentate on a game for years.

    Utterly dire.
