| New Ivory Coast coach - Francois Zahoui |
After loosing out to fancied Zambians in the final of AFCON 2011, Ivory Coast
have sacked coach Francois Zahoui and replaced him with former France
international Sabri Lamouchi. Announced on the Ivorian football federation's website, the move comes less
than a week before the start of the 2014 World Cup qualifying campaign.
This is Lamouchi's first senior coaching role and he has just five days before a home tie against Tanzania. No reason was given for the dismissal of Zahoui, who led his side to this year's Africa Cup of Nations final.
However, the Ivorian coach failed in his bid to win the country's second African title - and first since 1992 - when losing the final on penalties to Zambia. BBC News
