AFCON 2023: Senegal top Group C; Cameroon earn late win to join them in Round 16

Defending champions Senegal, rubber stamped their place in the Round of 16 after second half goals by Abdoulaye Seck and Iliman Ndiaye secured the Lions of Teranga a 2-0 victory in Bouake.

By virtue of winning their first two matches, Senegal had already secured a place in the next phase but with Guinea being two points behind them, it was a battle for the top spot for the two sides.

Following an evenly balanced ties, the deadlock was eventually broken a minute after the hour mark when Abdoulaye Seck found the opener, following a Krepin Diatta assist to give Senegal the lead.

Guinea, seeing that their chance of a place in the round of 16 was in jeopardy with Cameroon and The Gambia playing in a simultaneous fixture, went in desperate search of the equalizer but were met by a tactically sound Senegalese defense.

In true champion style, the defending champions absorbed the pressure and put the match beyond reach with a goal in the 90th minute following a Sadio Mane assist that was finished off by Marseille forward, Ndiaye who doubled and sealed the victory for the Teranga Lions.

Cameroon beat Gambia in a five goal thriller to move up to second place which books them a place in the Last 16.
