2010 Fifa World Cup Teams
Côte d'Ivoire
Côte d'Ivoire (or Ivory Coast) make this tournament their 2nd and successive World Cup finals and continue to develop as a commanding footballing nation.
Côte d'Ivoire had a very successful qualifying campaign not losing a match in 12 games but they will have to improve on their last tournament where they won only 1 match if they're to escape what has been classed as the Group of death.
The Elephants are not without their stars notably Salomon Kalou, Aruna Dindane, Kolo Toure and Didier Drogba (LATEST: Drogba is a doubt for the finals with a fractured arm) so expect to see some battling performances in Group G. [Latest Côte d'Ivoire Squad News]
