Senegal defeated Peru 2–0 in an international friendly at the Stade de France on Saturday 28, 2026. Nicolas Jackson opened the scoring just before halftime, finishing from close range after a clever assist from Ibrahim Mbaye. Ismaila Sarr added the second in the 54th minute, securing a good win for the African side.
The match, played near Paris, served as a key World Cup preparation fixture. Kick-off was at 16:00 GMT, with Senegal controlling much of the play against the South American opponents.
Ahead of kick-off, the team made a defiant statement by parading the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations trophy around the pitch. The display followed a controversial CAF ruling that stripped Senegal of the title, adding extra emotion to a confident team performance.
