Ivory Coast's coach, Émerse Fae, has explained the reasons behind his team's 3-2 defeat against Egypt in the quarter-final of the AFCON tournament held in Morocco.

Fae witnessed goals from Mohamed Salah, Omar Marmoush, and Ramy Rabia secure a victory for the Pharaohs over the Ivory Coast champions.

Guéla Doué and Ahmed Fatouh (own goal) managed to score for the defending AFCON champions during the match.

In his post-match interview with reporters, Fae acknowledged that his team committed too many errors against their North African opponents.

“We are disappointed with tonight’s outcome, but we made far too many mistakes at crucial moments in the game to expect to overcome them,” Fae stated.

“What pains me the most are those mistakes. It took us a while to settle into the match. I regret conceding the first goal so early, as well as the second.”
