Senegal's defence of their Africa Cup of Nations crown got off to the best possible start as they defeated Benin 3-1 in their first qualifying game for next ...

Fiabema had one good chance deflected wide with Norway trailing 1-0, although the visitors would equalise in the second period, before having a penalty to win it saved late on. Kane hit the side-netting and a couple of injury-time crosses from James were cleared as England threw everyone forward in vain. Unfortunately James’ first contribution of note was to concede a harsh penalty after coming together with Zsolt Nagy just inside the box. The Arsenal man had an early shot saved and Mount almost created a good chance for Kane, between more spells of Hungarian dominance. Conor Coady had to clear a shot off the line and Jordan Pickford made a good save before the hosts’ skipper Adam Szalai tried his luck from just inside the England half. Edouard Mendy kept goal and enjoyed a quiet evening between the posts in Dakar, although his clean sheet was spoiled by a very late Benin consolation.

Sadio Mané Becomes Senegal's Leading Goalscorer After Hat Trick (The Liverpool Offside)

Three goals against Benin in AFCON qualifying broke a tie to give the winger sole possession of Senegal's goalscoring record.

Going into the match, Mané had been level with Henri Camara at the top of Senegal’s goalscoring chart with 29. The winger took the pitch to kickoff Senegal’s 2023 AFCON qualifying yesterday, and he helped deliver a convincing 3-1 win by scoring all three of his country’s goals. It should be noted at this point that some Senegalese natives have suggested on Twitter that there was sarcasm in Mané’s comments that has been lost in translation, and this would make what he said much more innocuous.
