Stats before the game. This will be the first match between England and Senegal. It will be the 13th time that England’s first match against a new international has come at the World Cup; the Three Lions have lost only one of the previous 12 such instances (W7 D4), a 0-1 defeat against the USA in 1950. Senegal have alternated between winning (3) and not winning (D1, L2) in their six World Cup matches against European opponents, losing 2-0 against the Netherlands in their last match (Day 1 of this tournament). England have never lost in seven previous World Cup matches against African teams (W4 D3); the only previous match of its kind in the knockout stage was against Cameroon in the 1990 quarter-finals, when they won 3-2 after extra time, with goals from David Platt and two penalties from Gary Lineker. African national teams have lost eight of their nine World Cup knockout matches against European sides, the only exception being a 2-1 victory over Sweden by Senegal in the round of 16 in 2002. However, in all competitions, the England have never lost to an African in their history (14W, 6D). England could reach the quarter-finals in consecutive World Cups for the first time since 2002/06: the Three Lions have only been eliminated in two of the tournament’s seven round of 16, against Germany in 2010 (1 -4) and on penalties against Argentina in 1998.
🏆👉 🏴 Lineup England (4-2-3-1): Pickford; Trippier, Stones, Maguir, Shaw; Henderson, Rice; Saka, Bellingham, Foden; Kane.
🏆👉 🇸🇳 Senegal (4-3-3): E. Mendy; Sabaly, Koulibaly, Diallo, Jakobs; Diatta, N. Mendy, Ciss; I. Sarr, Dia, Ndiaye.
