Description
Young players battle for the ball while cars and motorcycles pass just a few meters away on the highway in the middle of the city center. The football goal consists of two large concrete foundations supporting the bridge that rumbles above them in Senegal’s capital.
Beneath the structure, football takes on a life of its own in the shadows, where dozens of young players fight to achieve a dream.
In Senegal, football is more than a sport. For many young boys, it is a path out of poverty.
