The Senegal goalscorer, M’baye Niang, got out of being arrested for driving underage at AC Milan by pretending he was another African player at the club.
Genuinely.

Idrissa Gueye’s shot took a deflection off Thiago Cionek and gave #SEN a lucky lead in otherwise uneventful 1st half.
Will we see the first #Rusia2018 victory from an African team?
