Senegal and Liverpool forward Sadio Mane scored a goal in added time as Senegal overcame Rwanda 1-0 in the second match of the Africa Cup of nations qualifying campaign on Tuesday night at Stade Abdoulaye Wade.

Amavubi defender Ange Mutsinzi fouled Saliou Ciss in the penalty area which resulted into a spot kick that was converted by Mane.

The winners of the group will qualify for the final showdown in Ivory Coast in 2023.
