Ivory Coast led 1-0 at the interval, and that edge matched the early flow of the match. A report says they had already seen an effort ruled out for offside before Inès Konan broke through in the 29th minute. The same update says the key moment before half-time arrived in the 42nd minute, when N'Sira Ouedraogo was shown a red card after a foul involving Algeria goalkeeper Chloé N'Gazi.
The second-half summary was far more punishing for Ivory Coast. The report says Inès Khiris levelled in the 58th minute with a long-range strike, before Rebecca Elloh missed a chance to restore the lead from the penalty spot four minutes later when she hit the post. Almost immediately, Algeria completed the turnaround as Amira Braham scored in the 64th minute.
From there, Algeria protected the advantage and saw out the 2-1 score. The clearest stat from the result was the split between halves: Ivory Coast won the first 45 minutes, but Algeria won the second 2-0. That swing will define the match highlights and the wider post-match stats.
