Senegal's victorious Africa Cup of Nations squad, led by match-winner Sadio Mane, were given a rousing welcome home as crowds of fans gathered in capital city Dakar.
Mane, who was named player of the tournament, converted the winning kick in the penalty shootout as the Lions of Taranga ended their long wait for AFCON glory after two previous defeats in the final.
Senegalese president Macky Sall declared a national holiday on Monday to mark the achievement, and massive crowds gathered in the streets awaiting the return of the victorious squad.
