Sadio Mané is already looking ahead to the anticipated clash with Cameroon. The Lions of Teranga, reigning African champions, are gearing up for the upcoming encounter with the Indomitable Lions, and Mané expressed confidence that Senegal will be prepared for the challenge.
In a post-match interview in the mixed zone, Sadio Mané shared his thoughts on the match against Gambia, emphasizing the team’s satisfaction with the win.
“We are happy because we won, and that’s the main thing. Gambia is a team that leaves the initiative of the game to the opponent, but it was a good match overall.
With the heat, it was a little difficult, but we had no choice, we had to play at that time, even if the pitch was also a little dry. But we are used to playing in the heat,” said Mané.
Looking forward to the upcoming clash against Cameroon on Friday, January 19, Mané remained calm and optimistic about Senegal’s prospects.
“The next match against Cameroon? We’ll see. We know that in this AFCON, all the matches will be difficult.
What is certain is that we will be ready. We know what to do and what not to do to win the AFCON. We have the experience,” affirmed the Al Nassr forward.
Mané’s assurance and focus on readiness underscore the determination of the Senegalese team to defend their title and navigate the challenging terrain of the African Cup of Nations 2023.
As the Lions of Teranga set their sights on the showdown with Cameroon, fans eagerly anticipate another thrilling encounter in this prestigious tournament.
