Sadio Mane has been sent congratulatory messages from his Liverpool team-mates following his triumph at the Africa Cup of Nations.
Senegal claimed victory over Egypt in the final on Sunday evening, with Mane’s Reds team-mate Mohamed Salah on the losing side.
The final in Cameroon finished goalless after extra time, with Mane himself missing a penalty in the early moments of the contest.
Salah had a couple of opportunities to score, but Senegal restricted Egypt to very few clear chances.
