This Friday evening (7:00 p.m. GMT), the Senegal National Team faces Malawi for the 3rd day of qualifying for CAN 2025. The first team composition of the new interim coach Pape Thiaw is known, notably with some strong choices.
The Aliou Cissé era has definitely passed, Senegal football is opening a new page with the adventure of the interim staff of the National Team, headed by Pape Bouna Thiaw, who begins this Friday at the Abdoulaye-Wade Stadium in Diamniadio against Malawi, for a meeting counting for the 3rd day of qualifications for CAN 2025. And as expected, the new Lions coach made very strong first choices.
Little used by Aliou Cissé, Iliman Ndiaye benefits from the confidence of Thiaw and was therefore established. In this striking choice, the former Niarry Tally technician opted for a 4-2-3-1 against the Malawians. The Everton striker will then play in ten. Formosa Mendy is in poright-back ste, rather than Habib Diarra, as well as Nicolas Jackson, preferred for the point of the attack, he who is still looking for his first goal with the Lions.
