Senegal came from behind to beat Sudan in the opening fixture of the Round of 16 in AFCON. The 1970 champions took a shocking lead when Aamir Abdallah scored his first international goal with a curling shot.

However, Senegal entered the dressing room with a 2-1 lead after two goals by Pape Gueye. Former Bayern Munich winger Sadio Mané and Nicolas Jackson provided the assists for the Villarreal midfielder.
