On Sunday 6th of February 2022, for the very first time in the history of the Africa Cup of Nations also referred to as the African Nation's Cup, Senegal's Lion Of Teranga won the tournament after beating 7-time winning country Egypt at the final by way of penalty shoot-outs after a very intense 90 minute and extra minutes.
Senegal came close enough to the cup at the previous AFCON tournament losing at finals to Algeria and finally clutching victory over the other contesting 23 countries this year at the Olembe Stadium in Yaounde, Cameroon.
