William Troost-Ekong silenced the partisan crowd at EbimpĂŠâs Olympic Stadium by opening the scoring with heading home late in the first half.
But Franck KessiĂŠ pulled the hosts level shortly after the hour mark through a downward header from Simon Adingraâs corner.
SĂŠbastien Haller snatched the spoils just nine minutes from time as he met another Adingra delivery with an outstretched leg in the penalty area.
The Elephants changed head coaches midway through the tournament as Emerse FaĂŠ replaced Jean-Louis Gasset following a poor group stage performance.
