Senegal and Yacine Diop unroll
Yacine Diop and her teammates offer each other Guinea
Senegal is off to a good start with its women’s Afrobasket. In Group C, the Lionesses made short work of Guinea. As a symbol, it is Maimouna Diarra who marks the first basket of this meeting. The player was called back at the last minute to compensate for the lack of bite under the circle.
Senegal quickly took the lead. The first quarter time ends with a score of 25-10 for the teammates of Mame-Marie Sy Diop. The second quarter goes much the same way, the Lionesses continuing to impose their basketball. Half-time comes with a score of 48-19.
The meeting continues on this same scenario. Guineans still have their heads under water. They can’t keep up with the Lionesses who had decided to take matters into their own hands. Guinea also spent 8 minutes without any basket during the fourth round. She only scored 4 points there.
Senegal wins with a score of 100 to 31. Yacine Diop finishes top scorer with 19 points. She even comes close to the double-double with 8 rebounds. Senegal’s next match in this Afrobasket, Monday, September 20 against Egypt at 10am GMT.
