Sadio Mane SNUBS handshake from president of Senegal after receiving medal in honour of their African Cup of Nations success as he instead takes the opportunity to copy celebration he learned from Liverpool team-mate Roberto Firmino

Sadio Mane left the president of Senegal hanging after snubbing a handshake during a medal ceremony following their African Cup of Nations success.

The Liverpool star scored the winning penalty on Sunday as Senegal beat Egypt to win the tournament for the first time.

During a ceremony to congratulate Mane and his team-mates in Senegal, president Macky Sall handed the 29-year-old a medal with a massive crowd of supporters watching on.
