In a thrilling conclusion to Group D of the TotalEnergies CAF African Nations Championship (CHAN) 2024, Sudan held defending champions Senegal to a goalless draw at Zanzibar’s Amaan Stadium, securing the top spot in the group on goal difference. Senegal finished in second place, also advancing to the quarter-finals.
