Qatar 2022, Senegal drama: Sadio Mané misses World Cup

Teranga Lions player has not recovered from injury

Drama for Senegal: Sadio Manè will not take part in the Qatar 2022 World Cup. The African national team’s federation, announced that the former Liverpool player, now at Bayern Munich, is not on the list of available players for the rainbow review.

The striker, in fact, has not recovered from the injury suffered on the last day of the Bundesliga, before the World Cup break, against Werder Bremen.

“Sadio Mané forfeits for the World Cup. Get well soon,” reads the note released by Senegal’s federation.

For the second edition in a row, no Italy at the final stage of the rainbow review. The failure to qualify, however, did not cost Roberto Mancini his job with whom, it should be remembered, the Azzurri triumphed in the European championships whose semifinals and finals were played in London’s legendary Wembley Stadium. Italy has won the World Cup four times, in 1934, 1938, 1982, with Enzo Bearzot at the helm, and in 2006, when the national team’s coach was Marcello Lippi, beating Raymond Domenech’s France in the final on penalties.
