Haller's goal is a parting gift, a striker's goal. Nigeria's captain maybe could have stuck a leg out himself. You have to give credit to the Ivorian striker for an impressive goal.

Ivory Coast have just made a few changes and Haller is one of those replaced.

Into the final two or three minutes of normal time.

They're already partying inside the stadium. Incredible scenes.

Wow. What a noise. I have my colleagues John Bennett and Ian Williams commentating in the seats next to me and I cannot hear them above the thunderous roar of the home crowd. I've also never seen subs run from one length of the field to the other so quick to join in the celebrations!

Simon Adingra has added a few pounds to his value in this final. The Brighton player has been immense to help Ivory Coast turn it around. The finishing line is in sight.

It's great wing play from Adingra, too much from Ola Aina. It's another fantastic cross from Adingra and it's a striker's finish. Instinctive, he knows where the goal is, sticks his leg out. Adingra has been the man, he's not scored the goal but he's been the most attacking threat, possibly in the whole tournament.

After all his health problems, has Sebastien Haller won the Africa Cup of Nations for Ivory Coast?

What a story we have brewing in Abidjan.

Alex Iwobi is replaced by Alhassan Yusuf.

One player jumping and the other one turning to hold their ground normally ends badly. That's a painful one, very painful one. You can get your leg broken there.

Another stop in play. Victor Osimhen is in the wars again.

Adingra does the right thing there heading it back, it's well wide in the end, but I thought Haller's race was run about 15 minutes ago.

The force is with Ivory Coast, that's for sure. Will they be brave enough to push it forward more. Can Emerse Fae make more changes going forward?

Another drinks break with around 15 minutes of normal time left.

Where is this final heading? Extra-time? Penalties?

Or will someone step forward and put their name up in lights in normal time?

What a story that would have been!

Nigeria have spent so much time going forward that when they do get forward, only one or two of them are interested in attacking.

Nigeria have everyone back defending. The momentum is with the Ivory Coast who are looking to win this in normal time.

Emerse Fae has made good substitutions to try and change this game around. He's now made the move to take his captain and second captain off. He removed the bit of danger at right-back and he's also added some threat moving forward.

Around 20 minutes of normal time left and the Ivory Coast are making changes.

Wilfried Stephane Singo and Oumar Diakite are coming on.

Serge Aurier and the impressive Max Gradel have been replaced.

I've been keeping an eye on Nigeria coach Jose Peseiro who got that yellow card for dissent in the first half. He's still raging. About everything and anything. Despite the technical areas being legitimately big enough to have a game of five-a-side in (I'm having Simon Adingra as first pick) he's still managing to wander out of it. Prowling.
