Match overview
Denmark and Senegal shared the spoils in an entertaining encounter that saw both teams maintain their qualification hopes. Tomasson’s early penalty gave the Danes the lead before Diao’s superb strike levelled the match. Senegal’s task was made harder when Diao received a second yellow card late in the game.
Trivia
The match was notable for Salif Diao’s contrasting fortunes, scoring the equaliser before being dismissed for a second bookable offence. This result kept both teams level on points heading into the final group matches.
