The match was a closely contested one, with Uganda's defender Hassan Wasswa leaving the field injured after just 18 minutes.
Despite having played one game short, Sadio Mane became the AFCON top scorer with three goals, including the winning goal against Uganda.
Mane's clinical finish, which went flying beyond goalkeeper Dennis Onyango, sealed the win for Senegal.
