Sven Goran Eriksson’s side looked good after playing out a goalless draw with Portugal in their opening match, but a 3-1 defeat to Brazil in a subsequent match coupled with Portugal’s 7-0 mauling of North Korea had in all certainty did them in.
The Elephants have remained in positive mood ahead of the clash in Nelspruit in South Africa and will believe they can record a convincing win. But realistically many will bet against them qualifying for the last 16.
North Korea will be going home after the group stage as expected, but will be looking to restore their pride after suffering such a crushing defeat to Portugal. Only a good performance against Ivory Coast will endear them to their dear leader.
The manager could decide to give opportunities to some players that have not figured yet in the tournament but is more likely to allow those that took to the field against Portugal to try and make amends.
