Ivory Coast and Senegal delivered impressive performances in their latest World Cup qualifying matches, securing crucial wins that bring them closer to the finals in North America next year. Ivory Coast's dominant 7-0 victory over Seychelles positioned them ahead in Group F, setting the stage for a decisive game against Kenya.

Meanwhile, Senegal reinforced their standing in Group B with a 5-0 win over South Sudan, thanks to contributions from Ismaila Sarr and Sadio Mane. A victory against Mauritania at home could seal their World Cup berth.
