Senegal have continued their dominance over Namibia as they walked away with a 2-0 win in their 2017 Africa Cup of Nations, Group K qualifier at the Stade Léopold Sédar Senghor in Dakar on Saturday night.

Although the Lions of Teranga had already qualified for the tournament next year, they managed to remain disciplined to fight for a win at home.

Goals from Mame Diouf and Balde Keita were enough to hand Senegal the advantage at home to consolidate their spot in the group.

Coach Moustapha Seck's side now have 18 points after six matches as they claimed six points (over two legs) against the Namibians.

It was 1-0 at the interval.

Upon their return from the tunnel, the Brave Warriors of Namibia struggled to find their rhythm.
