Côte d'Ivoire won the African Cup of Nations for the third time. The Elephants beat Nigeria 2-1 in the final on Sunday evening in Abidjan.

President Alassane Ouattara declared Monday a public holiday, non-working and paid. Millions of Ivorians followed the procession through the streets of the capital. Sébastien Haller, the Dortmund striker who scored the winning goal against Nigeria, was the most applauded by the crowd.
