The return of the “laser fan” ignites the atmosphere before the match between Egypt and Senegal

The Senegalese airline announced the discovery of Saliou Ndiaye, known in the media as the “Laser Fan,” after launching a campaign during the past few days to find him. The campaign achieved widespread resonance among social media users.

According to a company statement, fan Saliou Ndiaye will travel with Senegal fans heading to Tangier, to attend the semi-final match against Egypt.

The Egyptian national team, which holds seven record titles, is scheduled to meet Senegal tonight in the semi-finals of the African Nations Championship in Morocco at (9:00) pm UAE time, in a replay of the 2022 final in Cameroon, which the “Lions of Teranga” won on penalties after a goalless draw, as well as the decisive third round of the continental qualifiers for the 2022 World Cup, which Senegal also won on penalties..

Senegal, ranked second on the continent behind Morocco and 19th in the world, is watching the third final in the last four editions, relying on stars with great experience in the finals, most notably captain Khalidou Koulibaly, Idrissa Gué and Sadio Mane, who will face his former Liverpool teammate Mohamed Salah..

Salah, who has four goals like Osimhen, has never won the title despite twice reaching the final in 2017 and 2022.

The Egyptian king said after the remarkable victory over Ivory Coast 3-2 in the quarter-finals, “I have won almost all the titles, but this is the title I am waiting for.”

While Salah expressed his satisfaction with the Egyptian camp, Egyptian national team coach Hossam Hassan confirmed in a press conference that Senegal is not a problem for the Egyptian national team.
