- Cameroon held by 10-player Guinea as Man Utd's Onana misses opener
Senegal began their Africa Cup of Nations title defence with a 3-0 victory over 10-player Gambia helped by Lamine Camara's double in Group C on Monday, bringing an end to a sequence of surprise results at the tournament in the Ivory Coast.
After a shock-filled Sunday where the minnows had the upper hand over heavyweight opponents, Senegal restored faith in the form book as Pape Gueye scored early and Camara added two more to ensure victory in the opening Group C encounter.
Gueye put Senegal ahead in the fourth minute at the Charles Konan Banny Stadium, while 20-year-old Camara, voted Young African Player of the Year in 2023, underlined his promise with a fine finish seven minutes after the break and a sublime second into the top corner four minutes from time.

Highlights of the Africa Cup of Nations clash between Cameroon and Guinea
Cameroon were held to a frustrating 1-1 draw by resolute 10-player Guinea in their Africa Cup of Nations opener in Yamoussoukro.
Cameroon - missing injured captain Vincent Aboubakar - started with Fabrice Ondoa in goal after bad weather caused travel problems for his cousin Andre Onana. The Manchester United goalkeeper had taken a private jet to Abidjan in Ivory Coast after United's 2-2 draw with Tottenham on Sunday afternoon.
From there the player had reported difficulties getting another flight to Yamoussoukro, forcing him to make the journey by road instead. He was not named in the match squad.
Cameroon head coach Rigobert Song defended his decision not to include Onana in the squad, saying: "It's logical. He arrived at 4am. How do you want him to play? He's part of the group."
