the great homage of the Vélodrome for Dieng and Gueye
Zapping Foot National Top 10 winners of the Coupe de France
Pape Gueye and Bamba Dieng made Senegal, CAN and African football history in early February by winning an Africa Cup of Nations with the Teranga Lions, the first in their history. Two weeks later, on the occasion of the reception of Clermont Foot 63, the Stade Vélodrome and its 53,000 inhabitants paid a vibrant tribute to their two internationals.
After entering the pitch ahead of their team-mates to receive a cheer from the Velodrome, the midfielder and striker saw a huge tifo being unfurled in their honor and in honor of Senegal. If the two players did not start the meeting, they could be warmed by a huge flag of their country with a word in Wolof: Ndokkalé, meaning « congratulations ». Bamba Dieng then returned to the lawn shortly after the hour mark, when the score was 0-1.
