Transported Into Senegal’s Sacred Rhythms Beautiful Faces & Mystic Dancers of Casamance | S7 Epsd 21

What if everything you thought you knew about Senegalese football was just the surface? I was taken beyond the tourist trails of Senegal, by my guide and friend Mohamed. To a soccer game between a young aggressive rookie team and the old experienced veterans. Join me as I share my unbelievable journey from the streets of Ziguinchor and into the hidden, sacred heart of Diola traditions, revealing rituals and beliefs that will forever change your perspective on West African culture. An intimate perspective on rituals seldom seen by outsiders. This all was about a football match. The Senegal Lions of Teranga are the Africa Cup of Nations champions. Here we are in this remote village which may produce the next Sadio Mane. And it’s also New Year’s eve, our mystical journey continues from the bush to the city for the 2025-2026 countdown.
