    It's been quite an entertaining 0-0, both sides going for it, not sitting back.

  4. Ivory Coast 0-0 DR Congo

    Ivory Coast's best chance of the half as midfielder Franck Kessie blasts in a powerful effort from 20 yards, which is punched away by Lionel Mpasi. That's actually their first shot on target all night.

  5. Ivory Coast 0-0 DR Congo

    Ivory Coast striker Sebastien Haller goes down in the box, but the decision is he committed the foul so it's a free-kick to DRC.

  6. Ivory Coast 0-0 DR Congo

    At both ends a poor final through ball denies a Premier League forward a one-on-one. At first it was Simon Adingra and then Yoane Wissa.

  7. Ivory Coast 0-0 DR Congo

    Half-time really killed that Ivorian momentum. DR Congo have been the better side in the early stages of this second half.

  8. Ivory Coast 0-0 DR Congo

    A long ball into Simon Adingra is just overhit and the ball bounces into the gloves of Lionel Mpasi.

  9. 'Bright start to the half from DR Congo'

    That is what Theo Bongonda does very well, getting into those positions that are very hard to pick up.

    He runs at the defence and does well to get around two players, but he should be shooting across goal there. Still a bright start to the second half from DR Congo.

  10. Ivory Coast 0-0 DR Congo

    Theo Bongonda is almost a super sub. He gets the ball on the edge of the box, skips in between three defenders and smacks a shot into the side-netting.

  11. Ivory Coast 0-0 DR Congo

    DRC's Cedric Bakambu is caught in the head by Jean Michael Seri but he's fine and play continues quickly.

  12. SUBSTITUTION

    Ivory Coast 0-0 DR Congo

    DR Congo made one change from their quarter-final, and they basically reverse it at half-time. Theo Bongonda replaces Gael Kakuta.

  13. KICK-OFF

    Ivory Coast 0-0 DR Congo

    The second half is under way.

  14. 'Haller giving DR Congo defenders something to think about'

    You can see that the DR Congo defenders are aware of the presence of Sebastien Haller, that they have a big striker to defend against back there, they have something to think about.

    In the last 15 minutes of the half when he came into the game, the performance was better. His presence is a big plus. We know with all the crosses into the box he is there and he will hopefully get some goals.

  15. Ivory Coast 0-0 DR Congo

    The players are coming out for the second half.

  16. Ivory Coast 0-0 DR Congo

    Ivory Coast, for all their dominance, haven't had a shot on target yet.

  17. 'After the first 15 minutes it was all Ivory Coast'

    I would say the first 15 minutes were all DR Congo, they played well, dominated the game, found space in the pockets and looked dangerous at set pieces.

    Since then Ivory Coast have had the better of the game, and made many chances. They have dealt well with the threat from corners from DR Congo too.

  20. 'Ivory Coast getting success in the wide areas'

    The success has come in the wide areas for Ivory Coast. They have sent plenty of balls into the box which has caused havoc in the DR Congo back line.

    I think DR Congo will do all they can to see out these next few minutes and regroup at the break.
