Senegal overcame a robust Tanzania side to kick off their Afcon 2019 campaign with a 2-0 win. <\/strong><\/p>\n

Goals from Keita Balde and Krepin Diatta were enough to see off the tournament minnows, who seemed hellbent on fouling their illustrious opponents rather than playing football.<\/p>\n

Here are five things we learned as a Sadio Mane-less Senegal saw off Tanzania 2-0 in Cairo.<\/p>\n

1. Tanzanian roughhousing<\/strong><\/h2>\n

In any football tournament around the world, when you get a rank outsider facing one of the favourites, you’re pretty much guaranteed to see the minnows employing an element of skullduggery in their tactics. On Sunday, Tanzania took things to a whole new level.<\/p>\n

I love the tactic deployed by Tanzania against a superior opposition Senegal:<\/p>\n

If you miss the ball, don't miss the leg. ??#SENTAN<\/a><\/p>\n
