ACN: Gervinho magic puts Elephants into final

A contender for the goal of the competition from Arsenal striker Gervinho against Mali here Wednesday put Ivory Coast into the Africa Cup of Nations final.

Gervinho's solo moment of brilliance deep into the first half gave the Elephants' a 1-0 win and left them on a collision course with Zambia, shock winners over Ghana in the day's other semi-final.



The pair meet back at Libreville's L'Amitie stadium on Sunday.

For the Ivorians this will be their first appearance in the Nations Cup climax since they were beaten by Egypt in Cairo in 2006.

They are seeking their second continental title after a lone success 20 years ago.
