oh not really, but when I saw the score sheet, that name sounded oddly familiar, so I checked, and it turns out it's probably because he started his career in France at Auxerre about 10 years ago when they were in Ligue 2. And looking at the details, that's when I saw he actually played for France U19 team.
I agree, most probably the right move to go with Ivory Coast. Too much competition in offense in the French national team.
