A surprise early goal was good enough for the Algerians to be crowned African champions 2019.
Baghdad Bounedjah's deflected shot loops into the Senagal goals so early in the match and the Senegalese couldn't find their way back into the game.
In all you will say is a deserving victory and you can't also deny the fact that Senegal put up a good fight.
Senegal will feel they were unlucky conceding that goal and having a penalty chance being rulled out by VAR at the hour mark.
Many chances also make knocking on the door for them but it was never their day, as the Algerians back line was ready to absorb any pressure that comes their way.
The win brings Algeria Afcon tally to two leaving their opponent to keep searching for their first.
