The Ivory Coast come from one goal down to overhaul Japan in what was
a very watchable match. All it took was two headers in two minutes.
Japan will be disappointed. They seemed in control for so long. But once
they went behind they seemed to lack the energy and wit to grab an
equaliser.
Ivory Coast erased a second-half deficit to defeat Japan, 2-1, Saturday in the nightcap of Day 3 at the 2014 FIFA World Cup.
Keisuke Honda put Japan ahead 1-0 with a goal at the 16th minute of the match. That advantage held until midway through the second half when Ivory Coast scored two goals in three minutes time to move ahead 2-1, then holding on for the victory. Wilfried Bony and Gervinho scored for Ivory Coast, respectively.
