Earns assist Diomande assisted once to go with three crosses (zero accurate) and two corners in Thursday's 2-0 win over Curacao.

Impact Diomande would start the third group stage match for the Ivory Coast, not having started in all three games for the nation. He would finally earn his first goal contribution of the tournament as well, finding Nicolas Pepe in the seventh minute for the opener. The assist comes as a well-deserved goal contribution for the young attacker, now with three shots, seven crosses and 10 chances created in his World Cup campaign.

Impact Even though Amad Diallo scored the game-winning goal for Ivory Coast, there's no question that Diomande was the best player on the field for the Elephants.
