Sabri Lamouchi has announced a squad of 25 players for the second leg of the Brazil 2014 World Cup play-off against Senegal. The list includes regulars such as Didier Drogba, Kolo Touré, Yaya Touré, and Didier Zokora.
To compensate for the absences of Tioté Cheikh and Serey Die, who are suspended, and the injured Didier Ya Konam, the French coach has called up Diomandé Ismaël from Saint-Etienne and Abdul Razak from Anzhi Makhachkala.
Having secured a 3-1 advantage in the first leg against the Lions of Teranga, the Elephants are on the brink of qualifying for the World Cup final phase for the third consecutive time. The crucial match is scheduled for November 16 in Casablanca, Morocco.
