Mane injured less than two weeks before Senegal's World Cup opener

Sadio Mane has suffered an injury scare less than two weeks before the World Cup after limping off during Bayern Munich’s Bundesliga clash with Werder Bremen.

The Senegal forward was substituted in the 21st minute at the Allianz Arena on Tuesday, having received treatment on the pitch and subsequently signalled to the bench he could not continue.

Mane was involved in Bayern’s opening goal, which was scored by Jamal Musiala, but his substitution will clearly concern his country.

Senegal’s World Cup opener against the Netherlands is on November 21, giving Mane little time to recover from any issue.
