Back to the action coming up, BBC World Service caught up with former Mali and West Ham forward Frederic Kanoute, who believes the best two teams of the competition are contesting the final:
"I would add maybe Algeria, they had a tough group so anyone of that Algerian group could go through. Ghana deserved to go through - they were very serious all the way. And of course Ivory Coast got stronger and stronger as the tournament went along so I think we have the best two teams in the end."

I'm really not sure how Ghana fans would feel if they once again failed to land the big prize. It has been 33 years - THIRTY-THREE YEARS - since they last won Afcon.
Since then they've managed two runners-up spots and a four semi-finals. Their coach Avram Grant - ex of Chelsea - knows a thing or two about losing in a major fi...
Anyway, here he is:
"They are very motivated, they do not need any speeches because we have come a long way as nobody gave us a chance. They will show this on Sunday.
"We have improved with every game. Algeria and Senegal were considered better than us and this was a challenge for us.
"There is one more challenge -- the last one in this tournament."

Herve Renard in a white shirt
The Ivorians are odds-on favourites to win the final. In the last five tournaments, they have managed two runners-up finishes and a fourth.
Yaya Toure, Gervinho, Wilfried Bony and Max Gradel have all impressed, while right-back Serge Aurier looks a threat when he goes forward.
They eased past DR Congo in the semi-final, with Toure scoring arguably the goal of the tournament - a 20-yard thunderbolt.
Their coach is Herve Renard, a man rarely out of a white cotton shirt who once manager Cambridge United. I think that's the second mention of Cambridge United in this live text.
Here's our Herve:
"I'm sure Yaya will play a decisive game. He will arrive in time. You saw he scored a fantastic goal in the semi-final and that was not by chance.
"When you are fantastic player, these key important games are for you. They are always ready. For them there is no added pressure. The adrenalin of the competition is making all the difference."

We are back in Estadio de Bata - days after another stadium, Malabo witnessed awful scenes during Thursday's semi-final between hosts Equatorial Guinea and Ghana.
The match was disrupted by supporters throwing water bottles on to the pitch, which led to a suspension of play for more than 30 minutes as riot police, with the help of a helicopter, tried to quell the unrest in the stands.
Security has been increased for the final to avoid a repeat of Thursday, with the announcement coming hours after Africa football chief Issa Hayatou and Fifa president Sepp Blatter criticised the reporting of the events by some media outlets.
In the words of former Catchphrase presenter Roy Walker, "say what you see".

It is the final many wanted to see, including #bbcafcon2015 contributor Festus Abrah-Yeboah.
That final ended with Ivory Coast winning 11-10 on penalties - the last time The Elephants triumphed in the competition.
So can Manchester City's midfield juggernaut Yaya Toure lead his men to their first Afcon title in 23 years?
Or will Ghana, featuring the Andre Ayew and captain Asamoah Gyan hand the Black Stars their fifth crown and first since 1982?
