Yaounde, Cameroon – In July 2019, Senegalese journalist Bamba Kasse saw his country’s football fans dejected, frustrated and disappointed at the Cairo International Stadium as their national team, Lions of Teranga, lost to Algeria in the Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) final.
“Everyone was disappointed,” Kasse told Al Jazeera. “It was not a good game for Senegal because Algeria scored in the first five minutes, decided to close the game, and Senegal never came back.”
