Pathe Mboup scores within a minute of Senegal debut in Sudan win

Pathe Mboup made an immediate impact on his Senegal debut by scoring just moments after coming on in Thursday’s 4-1 victory over Sudan in the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations qualifying campaign.

The 23-year-old forward was introduced by Senegal manager as the Lions of Teranga looked in control against their opponents. Mboup needed barely a minute to make his mark, finishing to put Senegal 4-1 ahead.

It was a memorable first appearance for the young attacker, who earned his first senior international cap and found the net almost immediately after stepping on to the pitch. His goal provided an ideal start to his career with the national team.

Mboup’s introduction added further quality to an impressive attacking display from Senegal, who completed a comfortable win over Sudan. The substitute’s goal also ensured he ended the evening as one of the main talking points.

With his international career beginning with a goal on debut, Mboup has taken full advantage of his opportunity and made a strong early impression on the Senegal coaching staff and supporters.
