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.
