Limited impact in win
Wahi generated two shots (one on goal) in Sunday's 1-0 victory versus Ecuador. He also added one tackle.
Analysis: Wahi took one of Ivory Coast's four shots on target in this game, but he didn't do much else as the spearhead of the attack. Wahi might remain in the lineup for Saturday's game against Germany, but that looks like a difficult matchup on paper for the striker.
No longer banned
Wahi has served his suspension in Tuesday's first leg of the Ligue 1 playoffs against Saint-Etienne and is available going forward.
Analysis: Wahi will be back in contention for a starting spot, threatening Mohamed-Ali Cho's playing time going forward. Since joining Nice on loan from Eintracht Frankfurt in January, the Ivorian striker has contributed five goals and one assist across 14 league appearances, although he has also missed a few chances. He's projected to represent his country at the World Cup, where he would be a depth player behind Evann Guessand and Ange-Yoan Bonny.
