Sudan National Football Team

After topping Group D unbeaten—with a 3-0 win over Botswana and 1-1 draw against DR Congo—Senegal secured a 3-1 victory over Sudan in the Africa Cup of Nations 2025 last-16 clash in Tangier, advancing to the quarter-finals after overturning an early deficit. Pape Gueye scored twice in the first half to give the Lions of Teranga the lead, with Ibrahim Mbaye adding a third late on. The win sets up a potential quarter-final against Mali or Tunisia.
