They didn't always match each other, even though they carried Liverpool's attack for many years. Senegal's Sadio Mané and Egypt's Mohamed Salah faced each other in the African Championships, where Mané fired Senegal into the final with the only goal of the match.

In Liverpool, it was no secret that the team's two offensive stars, Sadio Mané and Mohamed Salah, were not always completely in agreement on the pitch.

However, between 2016 and 2022, the wingers carried the team to a number of titles, such as the league title, the Champions League, the FA Cup and the League Cup.

In the first semi-final of the Africa Cup of Nations, their paths crossed again.

There, it was Sadio Mané who had the first and last word. In the 78th minute of the match, he scored the goal that sent Senegal to the final.

In the final, either Nigeria or Morocco awaits.

Ivory Coast are the reigning champions. Senegal has one title already (2021). Egypt is the most successful champion with seven titles.
