Didier Drogba
Ivorians skipper Didier Drogba believes that experience will hand them a place in the 2013 Africa Cup of Nations tournament in South Africa. 

Control 
  

Speaking to mtnfootball after the team’s training in Abidjan, the Shanghai Shenhua striker affirmed that the team would be in the Southern Africa nation for the tournament.

- We have a lot of experience, which allows us to control these types of matches.  I think that the key to the match will come from experience and at this level, I can say that we have plenty of it.

Battle royale

The Elephants found the going tough in the first leg of their encounter despite winning the match 4-2 at home against Senegal and they do nit expect it to get any better in Dakar.

- Senegal caused us quite a few problems in Abidjan by scoring two goals.  They are a team that deserves a lot of respect, but there is also our efficiency which will make the difference. 

- It is the last one for a great number of us and we don’t want to miss it.  We will do everything to win a ticket to South Africa.

The match will be played in Senegal on Saturday 13th October 2012
