After an eventful 120 minutes of a goalless draw between Egypt and Senegal in the Final of the African Cup of Nations (AFCON) in Cameroon, Senegal have been crowned first-time champions of the AFCON 2021.
They won on 4-2 Penalties.
Massive celebrations and jubilation are expected in Senegal in the coming days with their maiden AFCON win.
A disappointment for Egypt, which would have been their 8th time to pick Trophy.
