Namibia stunned Ivory Coast 1-0 in the 2018 African Nations Championship (Chan) Group B match at the Stade de Marrakech in Morocco on Sunday.
The Elephants dominated possession in the early stages of the game as they looked to break the deadlock against the Brave Warriors.
However, the West African side suffered a blow when Pacome Zouzoua went down injured in the 32nd minute and he was replaced by Manasse N’Goh.
The Brave Warriors, who were making their debut appearance in the Chan finals, then applied some pressure on the Ivory Coast defence which eventually led to their triumph when Vetunuavi Hambira scored with a header in stoppage time, in a match they were considered underdog. © Backpage TXT
