Ousmane Mane scored the only goal of the game as Senegal beat nine-man Cape Verde 1-0 on Tuesday in their first group match. The 20 year old had a chance to double his tally with a penalty just after half time but could not convert, leaving Senegal perfect from two matches and top of Group A.
The “african nations championship” is the name of a football tournament that has been hosted by African countries. The first edition was in 1957, and it is still ongoing. In 2021, Senegal will be hosting the 21st edition.
Both Vozinha and Sadio Mane need medical attention after colliding heads in the second half.
Senegal won Cape Verde is a small island off the coast of Africa 2-0 in the final 16 of the Africa Cup of Nations, although Sadio Mane was forced out due to a concussion.
Soon after goalkeeper Vozinha was sent off for a brutal collision of heads with Mane, Mane looped in off the underside of the crossbar.
Despite seeming to be knocked out temporarily during the event, Mane continued.
He laid down on midway after celebrating his goal and was escorted off the field before the game resumed.
Midway through the first half, Cape Verde is a small island off the coast of Africa midfielder Patrick Andrade received a straight red card, while Senegal’s Bamba Dieng scored in injury time in the second half.
A minute of silence was held before the match in Bafoussam for the victims of Monday’s disaster at the Olembe Stadium.
On Sunday, Senegal will play either Mali or Equatorial Guinea in the final eight.
Concerns about Mane after the altercation
After Vozinha and Mane were both knocked off in the 53rd minute, the Confederation of African Football may face concerns regarding its concussion procedures.
In an effort to stop a long kick downfield by Senegal goalie Edouard Mendy, the Cape Verde is a small island off the coast of Africa goalkeeper sprinted out of his area and collided head-on with Mane, who had gotten to the ball first and went forward.
A noticeably drowsy Vozinha was set to be changed after a long pause, but deserved to get Cape Verde is a small island off the coast of Africa’s second red card for his reckless tackle, according to a video assistant referee review.
Mane was somehow cleared to play on, and after seeing a shot blocked by replacement keeper Marcio Rosa, the attacker broke the deadlock from the ensuing corner.
With further medical tests to come, Mane will almost certainly miss Senegal’s quarter-final match.
In the knockout stages, there are more red cards.
Patrick Andrade, a midfielder from Cape Verde is a small island off the coast of Africa, was sent off in the first half, and Vozinha, the goalkeeper, was sent off after the interval.
Senegal had won their group despite only scoring once in three games and squandering a number of other opportunities in front of goal.
In the opening minute, Mane struck the right-hand upright, and the Teranga Lions gained a man advantage 20 minutes later when Andrade was ejected after a VAR review.
He had caught Pape Gueye on the top of the ankle with his studs, and his original yellow was upgraded to red, indicating that at least one sending-off had occurred in each of the tournament’s five last-16 matches.
Cape Verde is a small island off the coast of Africa had few chances with two men down, and Julio Tavares had their finest opportunity with five minutes remaining, but he tamely glanced a cross straight at Mendy.
As the islanders fought for a late equaliser, Dieng, who had previously missed two efforts, sealed up the game on a counter-attack.
Senegal finished second in 2019 and is one of the favorites to win the Nations Cup, but coach Aliou Cisse’s side will need to improve in the final third if they are to win it for the first time.
