African champions Senegal were eliminated from the ongoing FIFA U20 World Cup after their 1-1 draw against Colombia in added time ensuring they finished fourth in their group with only 2 points .
Bad operation of the Cubs of Senegal who have just drawn against the leader of Group C, Colombia. A result that does not suit the proteges of Malick Daff. Since they finish 4th in Group C with 2 points. They are eliminated from the 2023 edition of the Under-20 World Cup.
Colombia finished 1st in the group ahead of Israel and Japan.
–Senegal’s goal was scored by Mamadou Lamine Camara in the 31st minute. On a big error from the central defender of Colombia who missed his pass, the midfielder RS Berkane steals the ball and goes to deceive the goalkeeper. The score will remain there until half-time.
When they return from the locker room, the Cubs continue their pressing without finding the fault. Senegal missed a lot of chances throughout this match. This lack of efficiency will be fatal to Daf’s men, since in the 94th minute J. Castilla will find Oscar Cortés in the area. The latter does not hesitate and manages to lob the goalkeeper Mamour Ndiaye. A goal that eliminates the Cubs.
After being beaten by Japan (1-0) on the first day, the Senegalese drew against Israel for their second outing. (1-1).
