AFCON: Senegal labelled a 'disgrace' for allowing Sadio Mane to play on after he is KNOCKED OUT

Senegal football chiefs find themselves under serious criticism after Sadio Mane was allowed to carry on against Cape Verde having been knocked out cold.

Concern grew for the Liverpool attacker following a nasty collision with Cape Verde goalkeeper Vozinha during the last-16 of the Africa Cup of Nations.

Following treatment for the mid-air collision in the 53rd minute when chasing a long ball upfield, Mane was allowed to continue while Vozinha, shown a red card for the foul, was carried off the pitch on a stretcher and reported to have been taken to hospital.
