Former Southampton duo Sadio Mane and Sofiane Boufal both scored to give Africa Cup of Nations title contenders Senegal and Morocco winning starts to their campaigns in Cameroon on Monday.
Mane, who switched to Liverpool in 2016 after two years with the Saints, netted a penalty seven minutes into added time to deliver a fortunate 1-0 Group B victory over Zimbabwe in Bafoussam. A few hours later it was the turn of Boufal, now at French Ligue 1 outfit Angers after four years with Southampton, to score and earn Morocco a 1-0 Group C win over Ghana.
