2024 AFRICA CUP - GROUP C - DAY 07 - Senegal vs Cameroon 3:1

AFRICA CUP 2024
 

DAY 07
Match 17

Senegal vs Cameroon 3:1

 

 

FACTS
Defending champions Senegal booked their place in the last 16 with a 3:1 win over Cameroon. Ismaila Sarr put Senegal in front in the 16th minute and Habib Diallo made it 2:0 midway through the second half. Jean-Charles Castelletto headed in to pull one back with seven minutes remaining to set up a nervy ending. But, after George-Kevin Nkoudou had missed a free header to equalise, Sadio Mane sealed the win in stoppage time.

Senegal will top Group C if they avoid defeat in their final group outing against Guinea on Tuesday (17:00 GMT). Guinea are second in the table after beating The Gambia 1:0 in the late game on Friday - a result which means Cameroon will most likely need to beat the Scorpions on Tuesday (17:00 GMT) to progress to the knockout stages.

Cameroon the five-time continental champions, who have one point from two games, could go through as one of the four best third-placed sides if they do not overhaul Guinea on goal difference or goals scored.
