Toure brothers lift Côte d’Ivoire

Brothers Kolo and Yaya Toure of Manchester City scored Sunday as Côte d’Ivoire snatched a 2-1 home win over Burundi to finish with the only perfect record in 2012 CAF African Cup of Nations qualifying.
Centre-back Kolo Toure put the Elephants ahead on 70 minutes at Felix Houphouet-Boigny Stadium in Abidjan only for Dugary Ndabashinze to level for Burundi soon after.
It was left to Yaya Toure to earn the 1992 Cup of Nations champions a sixth victory in six Group H matches with a goal three minutes into stoppage time.
