The much-noticed party in Senegal is the talk of the town
Yesterday, the Lions of Téranga played at the Stade de France against Peru in a friendly and won 2-0, a meeting which was mainly aimed at celebrating the victory during the CAN in Morocco. Except that since the match was planned, you are aware that the title was taken away from the Senegalese and that Morocco finally won on the green carpet. A completely insane twist, which is why the Senegalese federation rushed to appeal to the court of arbitration for sport. In the meantime, Senegal has decided to do as it pleases and to celebrate with dignity a victory acquired on the field as the coach recalled at a press conference. So the Senegalese players did not hesitate to tour the stadium to celebrate this African Cup of Nations. Trophy in hands, smile on their lips, Senegal offered itself one more celebration after those of January. Even the European press highlights the remarkable gesture of the Senegalese. “Senegal challenges CAF” writes the newspaper AS to highlight this unilateral decision which goes against the decision of African authorities. Same thing in Portugal with a different verb since Senegal provokes here.
Big concern at Arsenal
England have reduced their list significantly ahead of their final warm-up match against Japan. Noni Madueke is one of the players who left the selection, as are Declan Rice and Bukayo Saka. You understood, what they have in common is playing for Arsenal and that poses a real problem for Mikel Arteta. Like last season, the Gunners are facing a massacre of injuries at the time of the final sprint. So Arsenal is surely taking precautions to avoid the worst, but there are many absences. William Saliba, Gabriel, Leandro Trossard, Eberechi Eze, Mikel Merino, Martin Ødegaard and now Noni Madueke plus Bukayo Saka and Declan Rice who also have a little alert, the list is maddening. Enough to raise concerns given the colossal end of the season that awaits the Gunners.
All Italy is waiting for Bosnia
A short tour of Italy where Gennaro Gattuso is one of La Gazzetta dello Sport 2 days before the shock that the whole country is expecting in Bosnia. It’s a play-off final to reach the World Cup, the most important match of Gattuso’s coaching career. The former OM coach has one goal: to take the Squadra Azzura to the World Cup after 2 World Cups without her. While waiting to challenge Bosnia, Federico di Marco responded to the controversy sparked by the Italian players on Thursday evening. We saw them exult when Bosnia qualified against Wales, as if to say that the opponent is inferior. Obviously, this caused controversy and the left side of Inter Milan ended up reacting. “I respect all the clubs and especially all the national teams. It was an instinctive reaction, we were among friends and we were watching a penalty shootout.”Di Marco simply declared. Because there is no doubt that among the Bosnian players, this video is on everyone’s minds before the play-off final. Muharemovic wants to devour Italy, a necessarily special match for the Sassuolo defender who rubs shoulders with Italian players all season.
