The Senegalese Ligue 1 has completed its first half of the season with mixed results. At the top, US Gorée dominates. At the other end of the table, ASC HLM is struggling to find its rhythm, with only one win in 15 matches.

Gorée, a solid leader and a benchmark attack

US Gorée (1st, 27 points), champions of the first half of the season, didn't just shine with their consistency. The islanders also boasted the best attack in this first part of the season, scoring 20 goals out of a total of 179 in the first half of the championship. This offensive efficiency largely explains their top spot.

Ouakam, king of nothingness

Conversely, ASC HLM has the weakest attack with only 6 goals scored, a symbol of a difficult first half of the season. Another striking statistic: US Ouakam holds the record for draws (11), including 7 goalless draws (0-0), illustrating a league that is sometimes very tight.

On the defensive side, SONACOS of Diourbel has conceded 19 goals, a high total for this first half of the season. In terms of wins, AJEL of Rufisque shares the best record with US Gorée (7 wins each).

Conversely, AS Cambérène is the most defeated team, with 7 losses conceded.

Even though they did not finish in first place in the standings, Casa Sports (3rd, 24 points) and Teungueth FC (4th, 24 points) distinguished themselves by their solidity: only one defeat in 15 matches, proof of a regularity that could pay off in the second phase.

In the goalscoring charts, the competition is tight. The trio of Abdourahman Mbodji (Génération Foot), Mouhamed Diop (AJEL de Rufisque) and Boubacar Coly (Casa Sports) lead the way with 6 goals each.

At the halfway point, the Senegalese Ligue 1 thus offers a picture rich in contrasts: a clear leader, teams seeking redemption and a second phase that looks decisive for the race for the title as well as for staying up.
