Senegalese attacker Assane Diao had a night of highs and lows in Wednesday’s UEFA Champions League 3-2 defeat to Feyenoord.

The Como striker got things rolling by scoring in the 18th minute, marking his first goal in the Champions League with a tidy finish set up by Jacobo Ramón.

However, his celebration was cut short when he was forced to leave the pitch in the 23rd minute due to a left thigh injury, leading to Jesús Rodríguez stepping in as his replacement.

Despite Diao’s early impact, Como ultimately fell short, losing the match 3-2 in the Netherlands.

It was a frustrating evening for the Senegalese international. Still, he can take pride in scoring his first goal in Europe’s elite tournament while waiting to learn more about the seriousness of his injury.
