****ing hell you would not believe how hard it was to find the Senegalese FA via Twitter's deliberately broken search function...
A couple of very nice finishes from Lamine Camara, who plays for Metz. I wonder if we're considering another Sarr-style deal?
****ing hell, that's a new one Injuries is one thing, but contracting malaria on international duty?!?
In that case, I understand that malaria thought nothing of value would be lost so put a concerted effort in just on the off chance.
Two of those are from the same game! Surprised that they didn't use the Adebayor goal against Chelsea. I couldn't find anything without **** music, but it's a sublime finish:

Senegal beat Guinea 2-0 to maintain their 100% group record. The referee was Burundi's Pacifique Ndabihawenimana. Over to Paul Merson and David Pleat for the pronunciation...
Meanwhile, the Senegal squad included two Sarrs, two Mendys, two Ndiayes, two Gueyes, while Guinea had three Camaras, two Contes, two Keitas, and two Cisses. I think Pleat might have imploded.
An Algerian team with Mahrez, Feghouli, Slimani and Bentaleb on the bench just lost to Mauritania. That means that they will finish bottom of a group that also contained Angola and Burkina Faso. Some mad results in this AFCON.
Ivory Coast could still qualify and they've sacked their coach, too! Jean-Louis Gasset just found out that losing 4-0 at home to Equatorial Guinea doesn't wash. That's probably his career done, as he's 70.
The two Group E matches ended 0-0, so Mali top their group and Bissouma stays on. South Africa join them by finishing 2nd, but it also looks like 3rd place Namibia will, too. They have 4 points and will probably qualify as one of the 4 strongest 3rd place sides.
Meanwhile, in the Asian cup, both of today's games had a minimum of 4 goals: Iraq beating Vietnam 3-2 to top the group, and Japan beating Indonesia 3-1 to also qualify for the knockout stages Doesn't excuse the inelegance of having six groups, though, meaning that tomorrow's match between Oman and Kyrgyzstan inexplicably has stakes despite the two teams scoring just one goal between them, since the following scenarios are all possible: Oman win: Palestine, Syria, Oman and Bahrain go through Any kind of draw: Palestine, Syria, Bahrain and Indonesia go through Kyrgyzstan win by two goals: Palestine, Syria, Bahrain and Kyrgyzstan go through, with Kyrgyzstan going through on goal difference Kyrgyzstan win by one goal: Palestine, Syria, Bahrain and Indonesia go through, with Indonesia going through on goals scored
