Papa Diallo celebrates after scoring for Senegal
Senegal have booked their place in the finals of the Africa Nations Championship with a triumph over debutants Madagascar to set up a clash with host Algeria.
Attacker Papa Diallo scored the lone goal to propel the West Africans to their first grand finale in the tournament's 14-year-old history.
The Senegalese now face Algeria who recorded an emphatic 5-0 victory over Niger in the first semi-final match on Tuesday.
Ayem Mahious scored twice together with goals from Ayoub Abdellaoui, Sofiane Bayazid and Boureima Katakore (own goal) to send the Nigeriens to the cleaners.
The final will be held at Nelson Mandela Stadium in Algiers on February 4.
