If you look at the way the Ivory Coast national team are playing, you will wonder how Yanga attacking midfielder Pacome Zouzoua was not included in the final squad of the hosts for the Afcon 2023
Yesterday Ivory Coast conceded a 1-0 defeat to Nigeria and mortgaged their future to reach the round of 16 as they will need to win the last game against Equatorial Guinbea who are the leaders of group A
Pacome was included in the initial squad but was removed from the final selection which left 27 players
Pacome has had a great season with Yanga, he is the top scorer for Yanga in the Champions League with three goals, just one more than Sankara Karamoko of Asec Mimosas, who is leading in goals in the championship. Karamoko was not included in the squad
Pacome also scored four goals in the NBC premier league
Ivory Coast would probably benefit more if they included him in their squad
Let alone Pacome, even Yao could light the fire as well if he was called into that squad
