Morocco holds Ivory Coast to 1-1 draw

Ivory Coast remained unbeaten in their World Cup qualifying campaign with a 1-1 draw at home to Morocco. The visitors took the lead through Youssef Al Arabi eight minutes after half-time. Captain Didier Drogba equalised for the Elephants from the penalty spot with just seven minutes left to play. Having not played since the Africa Cup of Nations Drogba had retained his place in coach Sabri Lamouchi’s squad after being recalled for the 4-1 loss to Mexico in a friendly last month. Morocco were the only nation to take points off the Elephants twice holding them to a draw.
