Senegal kicked off their African Nations Championship (CHAN) Group D campaign with a hard-fought 1-0 victory over Nigeria on August 5, 2025. The decisive goal came in the 75th minute through C. Gomis, who converted after a tense first half that ended goalless.

The match saw physical battles early on, with Nigeria picking up two yellow cards inside the first 25 minutes (R. Tochukwu at 6’ and N. Junior at 23’). Despite Nigeria’s late substitutions and efforts to claw back, Senegal’s defense, marshaled by the outstanding Moussa Cisse—who was named Player of the Match with a rating of 8.0—held firm.

The win gives Senegal three crucial points to start their CHAN journey, while Nigeria will look to regroup quickly for their next fixture in the tightly contested group.
