Match Recap
Senegal needed just five minutes to settle this friendly. Ismaïla Ndiaye pounced early, and that solitary strike was enough to see off Comoros 1-0, with Aliou Cissé's side spending the remaining 85 minutes simply protecting the lead rather than chasing more. It wasn't a statement performance, but internationals rarely need to be; a clean sheet and three points of pride were the job, and Senegal got both without much fuss. Comoros, for their part, never found an answer to that opening blow, pushing forward in spells without troubling the scoresheet. Nobody on the pitch is threatening Lautaro Martínez's grip on the Friendlies scoring charts this window, but Ndiaye's early finish is exactly the kind of goal that sticks in a coach's notes ahead of tougher fixtures. Comoros will look to respond when they next take the field. For now, the only thing worth replaying from this one is that fifth-minute finish, so catch the highlights below and see how quickly Senegal made their point.
