The Ivorian government, as decided in the Council of Ministers, announced that the players of the national football team will receive a total sum of 365,000,000 CFA francs if they qualify for the 2014 World Cup. This bonus will be awarded at the end of the return match of the World Cup play-offs against Senegal on November 16.
Alain Lobognon, the Minister of Sports, shared this information on his Twitter account. The bonus serves as a motivation for the Ivory Coast national team, led by captain Didier Drogba, as they aim for qualification to the World Cup in Brazil.
