Senegal's recent campaign has yielded mixed results across three fixtures. They claimed a 1-0 victory over Egypt but suffered a 1-0 defeat to the same opponents in a separate meeting. Against Nigeria, they lost 2-1, a result that suggests defensive vulnerabilities when facing stronger sides.
The squad has won one, drawn none, and lost two of their last three matches. The victory over Egypt demonstrates they can get results against established opponents, yet the return fixture loss to the same team raises questions about consistency. The defeat to Nigeria, where they conceded twice, points to issues at the back that need addressing.
Senegal's attacking output has been modest across these games - they've scored just twice in three matches. The ability to find the net once proved enough against Egypt in one instance, but they'll need sharper finishing and more clinical conversion if they're to compete regularly at this level. The 2-1 loss to Nigeria showed they can score, but only after falling behind, suggesting they're being forced to chase games rather than controlling them.
The pattern emerging is of a team capable of beating quality opposition on their day but prone to lapses that cost them. Tightening their defence and improving their attacking efficiency will be key priorities moving forward.
