Sadio Mané rewrote several historic achievements at the Africa Cup of Nations

The Senegal national team defeated Egypt 1–0 in the Africa Cup of Nations semi-final. The only goal was scored by Sadio Mané, who rewrote several records.

Details: According to Opta, the Senegal winger has been directly involved in more goals at the Africa Cup of Nations than any other player since making his debut. In addition, he became the first player since 2010 to reach 20 goal contributions at the Africa Cup of Nations — 11 goals and 9 assists.

In addition, Egypt’s players failed to register a single shot at Senegal’s goal in the first half — neither on target nor off target. This happened for the first time in 33 Africa Cup of Nations matches.

Reminder: In the 40th minute, Mohamed Salah committed a foul on Sadio Mané, and the reaction from the players and coaching staff was immediate.
