After saving Bertrand Traore's shot in the opening minutes of the game, the Chelsea goalkeeper had no real test until Blati Toure finished off a fine team move - and the keeper was caught unaware.

Edouard Mendy - 6/10

Diallo broke the deadlock at the Ahmadou Ahidjo Stadium after 70 minutes of play. The PSG man also played a role in stopping Hassane Bande's attacking threats.&nbsp;

Abdou Diallo - 7.5/10

It was another solid defensive performance from the captain who was involved in the build-up to the first goal. He attempted a backheel that turned into an assist.

Kalidou Koulibaly 7-10

Limited Burkina Faso's attacking threats from the right flank but Sarr lacked the runs to push the Teranga Lions forward.

Bouna Sarr - 6.5/10

Ciss continued his brilliant work on the left flank. Aside from his defensive duty, he contributed to the attacking play and he was apparently the most fouled player in Aliou Cisse's team.&nbsp;

Saliou Ciss - 7/10

Earned his starting spot after a super-sub performance on Sunday but he was involved in a clash of heads with goalkeeper Herve Koffi on the half-hour mark. He got back on his feet and still supported the midfield until he was substituted in the 65th minute.&nbsp;

Cheikhou Kouyate - 7/10

The 29-year-old was a dominant force in the Teranga Lions midfield and his presence helped them to dictate the pace of the game.&nbsp;

Nampalys Mendy - 7.5/10

Gueye's ball-winning skill started the move for Senegal's second goal and he also attempted some shots before finally getting his name on the scoresheet in the 76th minute.&nbsp;

Idrissa Gueye - 8/10

Dieng gave a good account of himself on his first start for Senegal and he was close to hitting the ball before Gueye fired it into the back of the net.&nbsp;

Bamba Dieng - 7/10

Mane was at the heart of Senegal's attack and he registered the most shots on goal (3). In addition to that, the Liverpool forward also had an assist and a goal to his name. He was later rewarded as the Man of the Match on Wednesday night.

Sadio Mane - 8.5/10

Barely made a significant impact upfront but his presence kept the Stallions' defence on their toes.&nbsp;

Famara Diedhiou 6/10

The introduction of the Watford man boosted the Teranga Lions' push for an opening goal. His run won the corner-kick that led to Diallo's goal in the 70th minute.&nbsp;

Ismaila Sarr - 7/10

Gueye was also introduced in the 64th minute and he came close to doubling his team's lead in 74th minute but his header was narrowly off target.

Pape Gueye - 6.5/10
