That's it! Jubilant scenes as Ivory Coast reach the final against Zambia on Sunday. Can the golden generation finally win a trophy? It's finished Mali 0-1 Ivory Coast.

Tiene is booked for the Ivory Coast. Time wasting presumably.

Mali just cannot get an attack going, as Zokora wins a throw for Ivory Coast, goes down with cramp and rolls onto the pitch in order to waste time.
90+1'
Each side has committed 13 fouls today.

Drogba again goes down and fails to win the free-kick.

Mali minutes from going out but they are on the front foot at the moment.

Mali are committing more men forward now. Can they find an equaliser? The clock is ticking.

Tiene's free-kick is headed just over his own bar by Berthe, with the goalkeeper in no-man's land!
81'
Keita wins the free-kick down in the corner for Ivory Coast. They are so comfortable.

Keita's beautiful out-swinging corner is headed over the bar by Yaya Toure. He should have done better.

Kalou is replaced by Abdul Kader Keïta for the Ivory Coast. He's a big favourite with the Ivory Coast fans.

Drogba makes a strong run into the area, holds off Kante and sees his goal bound shot blocked by the onrushing Diakite!
76'
Good break to the edge of the area by Yaya Toure but his ball into the box is poor.
75'
Keita gives the ball away to Gervinho, but Mali win it back.
74'
Drogba needlessly puts the ball out for a goal kick to Mali. Poor touch.
