U17 AFCON: Senegal's Amara Diouf equals Osimhen's goal record

Amara Diouf, the thunderous Senegalese striker who was announced as one of the players to watch in this competition, did not disappoint expectations. He was the first player in the group stage to perform in the quarter-finals, and he just equalled the all time top scorer record. It was against South Africa (5-0) on Wednesday, offering himself a double in the process. It was his second of the competition, but above all his fifth goal of the campaign. The goal was his second of the competition, but above all his fifth goal of the campaign, which makes him join a prestigious name in the number of goals scored. It is Victor Osimhen, who scored 5 times in 2015. A reason for satisfaction for the prodigy of Generation Foot who still has potentially 2 games to beat the record. "It's always the right way, if you follow the examples set by the best players in the competition. It's a huge thing for me and I'm really happy to break the record. It means a lot to me and I hope I can also follow his path to success," he said.
