A 3-1 win for Alliou Cisse’s men courtesy of three second half strikes by Diallo, Idrissa Gueye and Sadio Mane was enough to send Senegal through to a second consecutive AFCON Final at the expense of Burkina Faso whose only strike came off the boot of Toure .B.
Senegal’s golden generation will hope to right the wrongs from their 2019 AFCON final defeat to Algeria when they take on the winners of the second semi final (Cameroon or Egypt) in the final of the 2021 African cup of Nations.
