Faced with an experienced roja, Senegal has let nothing pass: solid block, intelligent pressing and great tactical rigor, noted Senego.
In the second third time, Captain and Guardian Al Seyni Ndiaye, already the author of several decisive judgments, will be used in an unexpected manner. He doubles the putting on a powerful distant strike which surprises the Spanish porter (2-0). A rare and spectacular goal that again bears the Ibériques.
-The last act will confirm Senegalese domination. After a few occasions missed by Mamour and Mandione Diagne, it was Sidy Fall who makes the nets tremble for the third time (3-0).
