PHILADELPHIA: Amad Diallo struck a 90th-minute winner as Ivory Coast beat Ecuador 1-0 on Sunday in their opening game of the World Cup in Philadelphia. Ecuador hit the bar twice in the first half and the woodwork also denied Ivory Coast after the break, but Diallo stroked in a fine finish to win it for the West Africans in their first World Cup game since 2014. The Ivorians will meet Germany in their next Group E match on June 20. Germany thrashed debutants Curacao 7-1 earlier in the day.
