Pape Thiaw and his staff have slightly modified their starting lineup to face Burundi at Stade Abdoulaye-Wade this Tuesday (7:00 p.m. GMT). Only four changes were made from the team fielded against Burkina Faso.
A slightly modified animation for an offensive momentum to regain. The attack of the Senegal National Team certainly retains its playmaker Iliman Ndiaye and its left winger Sadio Mané, but it will also revolve around Habib Diarra and Chérif Ndiaye, Tuesday against the Burundi (19:00 GMT). Exit Ismaïla Sarr and Nicolas Jackson, two of the members of the offensive quartet lined up during Thursday’s victory against Burkina Faso.
Return of Abdou Diallo
Chérif Ndiaye, after three appearances, benefits from his very first start in the selection. An opportunity for the Red Star Belgrade striker to confirm what he is doing at the club and above all an opportunity for him to prove that it is better thanu an understudy role. For his part, Habib Diarra took advantage of his good start and his goal against the Etalons to push Ismaïla Sarr onto the substitutes’ bench.
Like the offense, the Lions defense is also seeing a slight change. Abdou Diallo, left on the bench during the last four matches, finds a starting place alongside Kalidou Koulibaly. Edouard Mendy is kept in the cages, all of Krépin Diatta and El Hadji Malick Diouf who continue down the corridors. Then in the midfield, Pape Matar Sarr returns to form a doublet with veteran Idrissa Gana Gueye.
