Ivory Coast might have beaten Japan 2-0 in a World Cup warm up match but if you ask Ivory Coast coach Sven Goran Eriksson if he could go back in time and lose and not have a doubt over Didier Drogba - he'd pick the latter.
The match ended 2-0 earlier today but captain Drogba picked up a right arm injury which forced him to go off after just 18 minutes. He is now on his way to hospital for a scan.
Drogba scored the first after his free kick went in off Marcus Tulio Tanaka, but just three minutes later a knock against the same player meant he had to go off. Reports coming out of South Africa are saying Drogba might be out of the World Cup after a serious fracture of his elbow, but these reports are unconfirmed.
Kolo Toure of Manchester City added the second goal ten minutes from time to complete the match although all the news will focus on the Chelsea striker.
