African most decorated rapper, Sarkodie has reacted to Senegal’s first-ever African Cup trophy win.
Sadio Mane netted the winning spot-kick as Senegal beat Egypt 4-2 on penalties to clinch their first-ever Africa Cup of Nations after a 0-0 draw.
The Liverpool forward had seen a seventh-minute penalty saved by Egypt keeper Gabaski but Mane held his nerve when he returned in the shootout.
Chelsea’s Edouard Mendy denied Mohanad Lasheen to give Mane the chance to win it in Yaounde’s Olembe Stadium.
Senegal had previously lost two Nations Cup finals, finishing runners-up in 2002 and 2019.
After Senegal won the penalty shootouts, Sarkodie took to Twitter to congratulate the nation for winning this year’s Afcon.
He hinted at a possible trip to Senegal immediately because there will be a grand celebration in the country and he doesn’t want to miss out.
Meanwhile, President Sall has declared a nationwide holiday in Senegal following their Afcon victory.
“I wanna fly to SENEGAL NOW !!!! Krom ho b3y3 d3 s333,” he tweeted.
