Football fans got to see why Liverpool and Senegal striker Sadio Mane is so elusive on the field.

Mane is seen in a video shared by the Senegal Football Federation shaking what his mama gave him alongside a saxophonist and dancing singers. The video was taken when Senegal departed for the 2021 African Cup of Nations in Senegal.

Mane scored a penalty with the very last kick of the game as the Lions of Teranga saw off a stubborn Zimbabwe in a group B encounter at the Kouekong Stadium in Bafoussam. Senegal has never won an AFCON championship, but the number one ranked team in Africa are favourites to finally break this particularly aggravating duck.

The video of the highly popular Mane was met with glee and joy by his Mzansi admirers.

Favourites Senegal had to toil for their 1-0 win against Zimbabwe in the opening match of group B at the 2021 African Cup of Nations.

As reported by Sports Brief, Sadio Mane lashed in a penalty with the last kick of the game that took place at the Kouekong Stadium in Bafoussam.

The Warriors' Kelvin Madzongue handled the ball while diving in to block a shot with just seconds of added to go, leaving referee Mario Escobar with no choice but to point to the spot after a VAR consultation.
