04:58Wan-Bissaka pulling it back here
05:00Bongonda's effort

05:53and everything else in the natural position
05:55a strong header

06:00giving the goal
06:01oh the goal's been given
06:03finally
06:04now that was really lengthy
06:08DL Congo four
06:13Botswana nil
06:14Mane drawing this back
06:15Senegal
06:16Mane
06:18well just a minute or so ago
06:20he was creating down this left-hand side
06:22that's a wonderful pullback
06:24left-footed finish as well
06:26for Kamara
06:28so it's 3-3 on yellows as well
06:31there go the coins
06:32we got to go with the drawing of the lots
06:34unless of course Benin might do something here
06:38it's a free kick
06:39conceded by Koulibaly
06:40and a yellow card
06:42so that's to DL Congo's favour
06:44he knows it too
06:46free kick given away
06:49in a dangerous position
06:51toss in brought down
06:53the referee is vacillating a little bit
06:55the longer he looks at that screen
06:56the more you know he's
06:58still trying to make up his mind
07:00there's the stamp on the back of the heel
07:02let's see what's the decision
07:04he's gonna cancel the yellow
07:08and hand out the red
07:11Khalidu Koulibaly
07:13while he realized what his fate would be here
07:17limitation
07:19it could not be tighter
07:21it could not be tighter
07:23and
07:24Sherefinjay will come on for a little cameo
07:28he's had an opportunity already in this tournament
07:31from Sansan Spor in Turkey
07:35one player more
07:37you know
07:38that's why I said earlier that I thought
07:41he would have changed his formation
07:43Garnage won possession
07:45Mbaye gets the pass from Njaye
07:47penalty
07:48referee was right behind
07:56there's the pullback
07:58a little bit on the soft side
08:00it's a bit soft
08:02and he was
08:04Turkey played in Red Star Belgrade
08:06previously played in China as well
08:09he's got a chance for his second of the tournament
08:12and does so

08:53oh what a goal
08:55what a goal here
08:57Faze

09:01what a lovely effort on the left foot as well
09:04beautiful
09:06stolen away though
09:08Abu Agha is just too slow for Sadio Mane
09:11lays it back
09:12Papage
09:14Papage with Senegal's response here
09:17at the Africa Cup of Nations
09:20the Lions of Terang
09:23well they get themselves out of the press to Senegal
09:27and
09:28turn themselves onto the front foot
09:30and onto attack little ball for Ismailia Sa
09:35penalty
09:38lovely ball in from Sadio Mane
09:40we have an offside flag up
09:42well the coach quite rightly saying this is going on a little bit too long
09:47he has given offside
09:49yeah
09:50so the offside takes precedent
09:58good in swinging ball but dealt with by Erring and by Hamis
10:02not properly cleared by Abdallah
10:04and a good shot and a goal
10:06flags up again
10:08offside
10:09he was coming back from an offside position
10:12sometimes you just really need to wait and
10:16and see
10:18wow
10:19well he
10:20surprisingly the flag did stay down there
10:23here's Nicholas Jackson
10:24Gay
10:25number two
10:26side footed into the back of the net
10:28first ball to Sa
10:30the song that looks look looks offside
10:34beautifully finished by Papa Gay
10:36that's left footed side foot
10:39there is a pause in play as we wait to see whether that initial ball to Ismailia Sa
10:46did not catch the Senegalese offside
10:49it looks very tight
10:50it looks very very tight and I'm sure
10:53goal's been given
10:54yeah
10:55goal has been given
10:56Mane again
10:59running from Mbaye
11:01Hamis got a touch but Mbaye is ahead of him
11:03Ibrahim Mbaye
11:05oh special
11:06definitely
11:07he dropped back deep
11:08he collected the ball
11:09you know what did the
11:11went behind the defender got it back again
11:13and then a true
11:14ball behind the defense for Mbaye
11:16so Senegal on the cusp of the quarterfinals
11:21there is the final whistle
11:25the Lions of Taranga
11:28have won the first game in the last 16
11:31Sudan beaten by three goals to one
11:35going forward on the left side
11:41Senegal in their change strip today
11:44in the whites with the green
11:46little ball here
11:49now can Gay get this back into the danger zone
11:52Diara slips it and Inja
11:55there is no risk you can see
11:56Inja he started the build up
11:58he took the man in
11:59put a beautiful ball behind the defense
12:01a pull back
12:02and you can see a goalkeeper who is struggling
12:04in mid-year
12:06the Lions of Taranga, France, Norway
12:08and one of Bolivia, Suriname or Iraq
12:11good shot
12:13well he's got a real appetite now
12:15and a taste for it Papage
12:17now Mane
12:18Minjai chasing in
12:20Diallo goes towards the near post
12:22here comes Papage
12:24and Malik Chouf
12:25tightest of angles
12:27but that wasn't far away
12:29picks up a second Diallo card
12:32and is off
12:34we saw the appeals there of
12:39Traore
12:44he can't say whatever he wants to say
12:46but in the law
12:47you thinking okay I'm a goal down
12:49that's the foul
12:50that's the second yellow card
12:51certainly showing some ambition
12:53this is Gasama on the left-hand side
12:5625 years old on Monday
12:59Sinayoko gets it in there
13:01and Mendy
13:02clings on
13:04thought for a second he might have spilled that
13:06I thought
13:07I thought
13:08Senegal
13:09knocked out in the round of 16
13:10at the last tournament
13:11by the hosts Ivory Coast
13:12he has a chance
13:14that hit Diaby
13:16it's laid back here for Garnagay
13:18good save from Diara
13:20away for a corner
13:23who captained the team when Bissouma
13:25was missing in the first match
13:27when they started that game against Zambia
13:30where Mali really were in control
13:32but let Zambia score late in the game
13:34header over the top
13:41so Mali got numbers forward for the set piece
13:43looking for a little touch at the back post
13:45it comes in and Mendy makes the save
13:47into the middle
13:49he has Mane
13:51looking for Sheriff Rinjai
13:54and cut out by Kamara
13:55but not far enough
13:57oh what a save
13:59from Diara
14:02what a superb save to deny Kamara
14:05much tougher win for them today
14:07than their previous encounters
14:09but
14:10looking to add a second to the score sheet
14:12shot
14:13Diara
14:14palms it away
14:15they are trying to push their team
14:17for an equalizer
14:18what a beautiful scene
14:20lovely noise around
14:22Grand Stade de Tangier
14:24and that's it
14:25it's all over
14:26Senegal
14:27are into the semi-finals
14:29not many teams have won it
14:31two or more
14:32Algeria and near Congo
14:33won it twice
14:35the average goes Nigeria
14:36three times Ghana
14:37four times Cameroon
14:39so
14:44Nicholas Jackson gets us underway
14:46Senegal defending the goal to the right
14:48there in the all green today
14:50when the board teams are tactically sound
14:53there's no room for any attack
14:55good turn from Mane
14:56now can he get away
14:57finds Jackson
14:59he has a chance for Diara
15:01gets a bit of a deflection
15:02take some of the sting off the shot as well
15:04made it a little bit easier for El Shinawi
15:08he knew it was going to be a corner
15:11he knew how
15:12you know they are a threat
15:13and he got them off it
15:15now Papage gets a shot in on the right foot
15:19El Shinawi has very little
15:22problem dealing with that one
15:24she don't allow them to
15:25can you understand what he's doing
15:30you guys are already on time
15:31you can see Salah
15:32you see
15:33Sadio Mane changed the corner taker
15:36get us underway here in the second half
15:43Ashur in possession
15:44no score
15:45after the first 45 minutes
15:48Diata plays it short to Mane
15:51Mane on the edge of the area
15:54where Kamara fancies a shot
15:56gets it on target
15:57and El Shinawi has a look ahead
16:02finds Mane in a bit of space
16:04little ball in for Jackson
16:06very quickly the options of a square ball across the face of goal
16:11cut out by the Egyptian defense
16:14now another long range effort Kamara
16:16Mane goal!
16:18Sadio Mane with a touch of fortune
16:23touch of fortune
16:25touch of fortune
16:26but at the same time touch of class
16:28if another player will have botched that ball
16:30all over the bar
16:32but you know a quick control
16:33the ball knocked off him
16:34the ball dropped in front of him
16:36perfectly well
16:37and then he struck that ball
16:38but we might see a different angle of it
16:41now there was a shot from Kamara
16:43that caused the commotion
16:44there's the rebound
16:46and Mane takes the opportunity
16:49the ball hit him on the mid-session
16:51dropped perfectly well for him
16:53a player with that ability
16:54and a player with experience like that
16:56knows what he needs to do
16:57one team in his mind
16:59hit the target
