Manchester United defender Eric Bailly has taken to social media to respond following Ivory Coast's exit from the AFCON last night.
The Elephants lost 5-4 to seven time winners Egypt in Douala and were eliminated at the last 16 stage.
Bailly, who was recalled to the side following a head injury he sustained early in the tournament, saw his effort tipped on to the bar.
After 120 tense minutes with the scores locked at 0-0, the game was decided on penalties, with Liverpool's Mohamed Salah netting the deciding spot-kick.
Bailly has since taken to Instagram to share his thoughts following Ivory Coast's exit, expressing his 'disappointment and disillusionment.'
He began: ''Painful elimination from the Africa Cup on Nations. I am at a loss of words to describe my disappointment and disillusionment.
''Proud and grateful to have been able to compete in this competition surrounded by such a great team. Thanks to the supporters for being with us.
''We will rise again. The one who is the one is the best.''
