Pape Gueye and Senegal
After Senegal’s World Cup exit
Pape Gueye says he will take a break from playing for Senegal while the current management remains in charge. The Villarreal midfielder made the call after Senegal lost a two-goal lead and were knocked out by Belgium.
Gueye’s announcement deepens Senegal’s latest crisis after another controversial tournament exit under Pape Thiaw. The decision follows frustration over substitutions, late Belgium goals and a 125th-minute penalty that ended their World Cup campaign in Seattle.
