LIVE – Updated at 16:15

Minute-by-minute report: Join Scott Murray for updates as two of the continent’s heavyweights meet in Douala.

15 min: Ivory Coast continue to dominate possession, though it’s all a bit slow, and Egypt don’t look particularly troubled by this state of affairs.

13 min: Mohamed goes up for a high ball and clanks Konan on the ear. Ivory Coast want a booking, but they’re not getting their wish. Konan is back up and running again quickly.

11 min: It’s a bit early for a lull, but here we are.

9 min: The first card of the afternoon is shown to Bailly, who hangs out a leg and brings Mohamed crashing down. It’s well deserved, a fairly crude swipe at the Egypt attacker’s ankle.

8 min: Egypt are struggling to retain possession during these early exchanges. A couple of long balls in the vague direction of Salah, and that’s the sum total of their creativity so far. Plenty of time to hone their art.

6 min: Aurier bursts into the Egypt box from the right. Marmoush lightly nudges him on the shoulder, and he crashes dramatically to the floor. He wants a penalty, but come off it and come on. Goal kick.

5 min: Gradel drops a shoulder and makes his way past Elneny down the left. He aims for the top right but the shot is blocked. It’s a fast start by the Ivorians.

3 min: The first shot in anger is taken by Kessie, who spins into a bit of space, 25 yards from goal, and drags a low effort wide right of the Egypt goal. El Shenawy had it covered.

2 min: This is the 11th time these countries have met at the Afcon. It’s now the most-played fixture in tournament history.

Ivory Coast get the ball rolling. They ping it forward quickly, albeit to little effect. Egypt will most likely sit back and hope to hit their opponents on
