A narrow victory for Senegal over Benin U20 in the previous encounter, which took place in the quarterfinals of this competition, will carry over to this game. After the first half was tied 0-0, Senegal was able to secure their spot in the semi-finals thanks to a goal scored by Samba Diallo in the 51st minute of the second half. This goal was all that was required to put Senegal through to the next phase of the competition. Taking a cursory glance at how they have performed leading up to this competition, the Young Teranga have been in dominant form, winning every single match they have played in this competition thus far.
Tunisia U20 - huge underdogs
The first few rounds of this competition have not been particularly kind to Tunisia, but the team is riding high on the momentum gained from their penalty shootout victory over Congo after the regulation match finished in a 3-3 tie. They are hoping for an even stronger showing when they face Senegal. The Tunisian side performed well to advance to this level, as they finished in second place in their group stage competition. Nevertheless, in order to advance further, they will need to put in a lot of solid play against a very difficult Senegalese U20 side.
