Senegal captain Kalidou Koulibaly will miss his side’s Africa Cup of Nations last 16 match after getting sent off in his 100th appearance for the team. The 34-year-old Koulibaly, who led Senegal to victory at the 2021 edition of the tournament, was sent off Tuesday in the 71st minute of a 3-0 win over Benin in Group D in Tangier. Koulibaly was initially shown a yellow card for his foul on Aiyegun Tosin, when he stamped on the back of the Benin forward’s ankle with his boot, but it was upgraded to red after a VAR review.
