“We are champions in whatever way …”

It was written, Sadio Mané was to be the first Senegalese footballer to win the coveted English championship.

The story took place on this evening of Thursday, June 25, with the consecration of the Liverpool “Reds” who sit on the roof of the English kingdom after 31 disputed days. But, especially after thirty long years of unbearable waiting.


For the “Lion” of Senegal who enters a little more into the history of the PL and the Liverpool club, the coronation is all the more tasty in a context where the pandemic of the covid-19 had put football on hold for more than three months. Sadio Mané is now King of England, for an exceptional and unprecedented season.

And, it was by video call that the “Reds” striker intervened this Friday, live on the “La Team” program on Canal + Sport.


Sadio to return to the last moments that followed the coronation of his team: “It was a magic evening we all followed the match yesterday (Thursday) with the staff, the players everyone was there. We enjoyed this evening I saw some dancing talents, it was impressive (laughs) The coach (Klopp) it was he who danced the most it looks like he was in a nightclub “, testify the child of Bambali (Sédhiou) still on his little cloud.

Since the “Reds” were crowned thanks to the victory of the Chelsea “Blue” 2-1 over their rival Man City. The victory could have been more glorious except that the Senegalese does not see things in the same light: “As I said, we all watched the match (Chelsea –Man City) with great pleasure. We are champions in whatever way. This season has not been easy with the truce imposed by the covid-19. So there is no frustration, on the contrary we feel great joy. “A coronation which crowns a season as unusual as it is complicated, seems to explain the CAN 2019 finalist.

Forget the disappointment of the previous season where the title had slipped from the hands of Liverpool for two small points of difference in favor of the great rival Manchester City. This painful memory was the source of motivation for the band at Klopp: “Last season we had a perfect course, we dominated the championship from start to finish. Our objective was obviously to finish champion even if opposite there were great teams … “

The other strength of the “Reds” will also be its great stability with a united group. “The team has not changed, we have been able to keep the same team for quite some time and we are evolving with even the staff. We know each other well on the field, we speak the same language so it’s something that has facilitated this great season for us. “

The infernal rhythm imposed by Liverpool carried by a charismatic Klopp will allow them this time to touch the grail. “We were solid on all fronts. You know at some point when you win all the time confidence eventually settles. I think that’s the key to our success. From the start, we were ahead of our direct competitor. This allowed us to play without too much pressure and reach our goal… We will give the maximum and try to win all the matches that remain. “
