Sadio Mané was guilty of a very big mistake during the first period of the clash between Senegal and Ivory Coast, this Monday, in the round of 16 of CAN 2024. But the Lions striker of the Téranga escaped the red card.

His match might have ended following just ten minutes. Sadio Mané narrowly escaped a red card during the clash between Senegal and Ivory Coast, this Monday, in the round of 16 of CAN 2024. After delivering an assist to Habib Diallo on the opening score (4th), the Lions of Téranga striker was guilty of a very big foul on Ibrahim Sangaré in midfield. Late in his intervention, the star of Al-Nassr (Saudi Arabia) intervened with his foot very high on the Nottingham player Forrest.

Mané’s crampons crashed into Sangaré’s shin, who immediately twisted in pain as he fell to the ground. Pierre Atcho, the Gabonese referee, only issued a yellow card once morest the former Liverpool captain, despite strong protests from the Elephants.

No VAR intervention

Despite several spectacular slow motions broadcast on television, the VAR did not intervene. The referee therefore did not go to review the images at the edge of the pitch. Sangaré was briefly evacuated on a stretcher, with an ice pack on his shin, before returning very quickly to the field. No apparent following-effects.

Sadio Mané can consider himself happy to have been able to continue the meeting. Given the dangerousness of his intervention, the 31-year-old striker would undoubtedly have received several suspension matches if he had been excluded for this action.
