On July 14, 2019, Senegal secured their spot in the Africa Cup of Nations final with a thrilling win over Tunisia. The match saw both sides have penalties saved in normal time before Dylan Bronn inadvertently headed the only goal of the game in extra time.
Senegal dominated the first half, producing seven shots to Tunisia's two, with Sadio Mane missing an open goal. Tunisia improved after the interval and were awarded a penalty when Ferjani Sassi's effort struck Kalidou Koulibaly's arm, but Sassi's spot-kick lacked power and direction and was saved by Alfred Gomis.
Four minutes later, Senegal were given a penalty of their own when Ismaila Sarr was brought down by Bronn, but Henri Saivet's shot was kept out by Mouez Hassen. The Tunisia goalkeeper then inadvertently gifted victory to Senegal, who will be without influential captain Kalidou Koulibaly for the final as he is suspended.
