UPDATE: Senegal have won their first ever Africa Cup of Nation (AFCON) tournament.

The Lions of Teranga make history after losing 2019 AFCON final edition to Algeria.

This is the third time Senegal are reaching the finals. In 2002 Senegal lost to Cameroon at the shootouts with 3-2.

Senegal reached their second finals in 2019 but the West African country was defeated by Algeria.

In 2022, Feb 7, Senegal took advantage of the poor penalty shots by Egyptians and Sadio Mane put the nail on his goal stamping the Lions of Teranga’s victory.
