ivory Coast, the 2023 Africa Nations Cup hosts, dominated their first World Cup qualifying match, winning 4-0 against Seychelles.

Hamed Traore, a substitute, and teenage striker Karim Konate both scored twice in a match that could have ended in a larger win if Carlos Simoen hadn’t made some outstanding saves.
