The duel of the lions lived up to its promise.In the end, it was the Lions of Teranga who prevailed over the Indomitable Lions (1-0). Senegal, with their 3-4-2-1 formation from the start, suffocated Cameroon. Sadio Mané and company stepped up their presence in the Cameroonian camp and multiplied their attacks. They were rewarded in the 35th minute with a penalty perfectly converted by Mané.
After the break, Rigobert Song's men came back with better intentions and put the Senegalese to the sword. With intense pressure, they prevented the Lions of Teranga from developing their game. Despite the pressure in the Senegalese camp, Cameroon failed to equalize. The Senegalese even had two great opportunities when Ismaïla Sarr missed a one-on-one. Boulaye Dia's shot struck the crossbar.
The score remained level. Senegal win the first act before the group phase of AFCON 2023.
