Didier Drogba is convinced the pain of defeat can spur the Ivory Coast to victory against the Netherlands tonight.
Drogba scored when the Elephants made their historic World Cup bow in Hamburg last Saturday but it was not enough to prevent Argentina snatching victory.
That result, coupled with the Netherland's triumph over Serbia and Montenegro 24 hours later, means the Ivorians might as well book their flights back to Africa if they are unable to avoid a second successive setback.
Even a draw may not help Drogba's men survive the 'Group of Death' such is the standard they are expected to reach.
The Chelsea forward said: 'We missed a big chance against Argentina, which shows we still have much to learn.
;But the defeat only makes us more determined to do well against Holland. It is not going to be easy for us, we always knew that.
'But we have good players and we will give it a go.'
