Sadio Mane showed his class shortly after fluffing his lines from the penalty spot during the Africa Cup of Nations final on Sunday.The Senegal forward had the chance to put his side ahead just four minutes into the tie but saw his shot excellently parried by Egypt goalkeeper Mohamed Abou Gabal.

But rather than hang his head in shame, Mane lifted his arms in the air in an immediate attempt to rally the crowd.In response, Liverpool fans were quick to lavish the 29-year-old, who has gone head-to-head with club teammate Mohamed Salah this evening, with praise."Top mentality," wrote one Liverpool fan."Few players would do this if they failed like that.

I want Mane to be rewarded," tweeted another.A third said: "What a pro Mane is. Unbeatable attitude. C'mon Senegal!"Mane was spotted exchanging a few stern words with Salah shortly before his spot-kick as the two cast their friendship aside in an attempt to be crowned kings of Africa.Who is the greatest African footballer of all time?
