Sadio Mané : « Un excellent début, mais la concentration reste primordiale »
Following Senegal's resounding victory in their opening match, Sadio Mané spoke to reporters in the mixed zone. While the star striker savored this first win, he remained grounded and was already looking ahead to the upcoming clash against Congo.
“It wasn’t easy at the beginning, because our opponents were very compact and caused us quite a few problems. But once we managed to play between the lines, it made things easier for us. We created a lot of chances and, in the end, we scored three goals,” explained Mané, satisfied with the Lions’ attacking prowess.
Heading towards Congo: Avoiding overconfidence
Already focused on the rest of the competition, the number 10 emphasized the importance of maintaining a high level of performance: “We are now focused on Congo for our second match. It’s always nice to start with a win, especially in this way, but Congo will be a difficult opponent. We are prepared and motivated.”
Sadio Mané also emphasized that a good start guarantees nothing, lucidly referring to the 2024 campaign: “In 2024, we started with a 3-0 win but finished in eighth place. We know what we need to do: stay focused from start to finish. This first match is important, but it's not our ultimate goal. We'll learn from every game to build momentum.”
