Darius1998 Posted December 4, 2022 Share Posted December 4, 2022 Preview Two teams from countries previously invaded by France go head to head in our third round of 16 encounter. England come into this unbeaten and having topped their group. Meanwhile, the reigning Africa Cup of Nations champions are a team shorn of their star man in Sadio Mane but took a comfortable 2nd place in their group behind the Netherlands with a fine display against Ecuador. Senegal manager Aliou Cisse should be well enough to take charge tonight. England have been eliminated at this stage on two previous occasions (1994 and 2010) while Senegal are making just their third World Cup finals appearance, having reached the quarters in 2002 while making a narrow group stage exit on disciplinary record four years ago. Head to head: These two teams have never faced each other, not even in a friendly. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_jagster Posted December 4, 2022 Share Posted December 4, 2022 Think this will be quite tense, Senegal won AFCON by hanging in there and keeping it tight, Southgate is Southgate. Maybe Slabhead can get on the end of a free kick and make it less of a gruelling night. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know it’s fun to bash every aspect of this World Cup, I get it, but the atmosphere is far better in the stadiums than it comes across on TV. Anybody that’s been to an actual football game knows that. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smallen Posted December 4, 2022 Share Posted December 4, 2022 People are moaning about Henderson but he fits the rest of the team much better than Mount imo. I’m just glad he’s kept Bellingham in instead of Mount! 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

CFuller Posted December 4, 2022 Share Posted December 4, 2022 I can see one of two scenarios happening: 1. England deliver a solid but otherwise uninspiring 1-0 win. 2. A defensive disaster hands Senegal the win, the tabloids go crazy, and Southgate is out of a job before Tuesday. I don't expect Senegal to be blown away, but I'm quietly optimistic, so I reckon it'll be a 1-0 England win. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

pearcey_90 Posted December 4, 2022 Share Posted December 4, 2022 Zero nerves if we just play on front foot. Saka/Foden are two of the most form wingers in world football this season, give them the ball in Senegal half we'll win. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
