Diouf, who is actively engaged in the tournament in Ivory Coast, expressed his admiration for the Lions of Teranga’s flawless display and highlighted the team’s cohesion and determination.
“I think it’s the best match I’ve seen under the Aliou Cissé era. We had very good matches with Aliou, but I think this match is the most complete, both in concentration and determination.
And there were no technical flaws,” remarked El Hadji Diouf, praising the team’s seamless execution on the field.
The former Senegalese international didn’t just limit his accolades to the players’ performance but also extended his commendations to Aliou Cissé, the head coach.
Diouf’s assessment of the team’s unity and commitment echoed a sentiment of camaraderie and shared purpose, emphasizing the collective effort toward national glory.
“We have a team of young people who love each other, who want to be with each other and who work for the good of their country and for that of their coach.
Between the players, Aliou Cissé, and the technical staff or the Federation, it’s a love story,” added El Hadji Diouf, underlining the harmonious relationship within the Senegalese camp.
As Senegal gears up to face Cameroon in their second fixture, the words of encouragement from a football icon like El Hadji Diouf serve as a motivational boost for Aliou Cissé and his talented squad.
