Senegal dominated Mauritania 4–0 in their FIFA World Cup qualification match on 14 October, asserting control through a structured 4-2-3-1 setup that stifled their visitors' attacking threat. The hosts registered 15 shots with seven on target, while Mauritania managed only ten attempts and just one shot on target, highlighting the gulf in quality between the sides. Goals from Habib Diallo, Habibou Diallo and Iliman Ndiaye secured a commanding victory that showcased Senegal's superiority in the Group B encounter. Mauritania's goalkeeper posted a perfect 100% save percentage from the limited chances created, though the team's defensive frailty proved decisive. This emphatic win strengthens Senegal's qualification prospects significantly.
