"Senegal edged past Egypt 1-0 in a close-run Africa Cup of Nations semi-final in Tangier on Wednesday, with Sadio Mane scoring a dramatic winner 12 minutes from full-time to send his side into the final. Footage shows Mane arriving for a press conference and posing for a picture with the player of the match trophy. Later, Senegalese coach Pape Thiaw and Egyptian coach Hossam Hassan are seen addressing the media. "Today’s match was very difficult. We were facing the best team in Africa, but we didn’t give up," Mane told the press. He added that Senegal kept pushing until the breakthrough came, but remained cautious in defence throughout. "We were also vigilant because we knew that the slightest mistake would be fatal for us," he said. Meanwhile, Senegal coach Pape Thiaw lauded Mane and commended the Egyptian team. "It wasn't easy, but they did it. We must also commend the great Egyptian team, who showed some good things. For me, they are the best team in Africa," he said. Senegal will now face hosts Morocco in Sunday’s final in Rabat. Morocco advanced after defeating Nigeria on penalties in the other semi-final. The hosts have won three of the last four meetings between the two sides, with Senegal claiming victory once."
