Mendy looked a bit lost on that first goal, wasn’t a particularly good finish from Henderson.
Day 15: France vs Poland | England vs Senegal (Last 16 3&4)
- Thread starter Samid
- Start date
Dreadful for 30 minutes. ridiculously slow to the point of boredom but Kane showing what United are missing in a No.9 - absolutely never going to miss, Martial and Rashford might well have done. Great break by bellingham, taking players on and releasing at just the right time.
No chance of beating France

They're shookNervous much?
This England team really are like Ole's United. Absolutely lethal in periods of a match but also absolutely dire for large parts too.
Not really, at least not on that. England are good at set pieces and France are terrible at them, so if I was english I would keep that in mind.Nervous much?
Good for England.
Hope the expected happen in the rest of games so we can have Argentina vs Netherlands, France vs England, Croatia vs Brazil, and Portugal vs Spain.
All of them great matches

They did if he turned the TV on at the 38th minute.
Yup, you're right about that one.
Nah Bellingham has been excellent. The rest of the team quite poor. France will annihilate us. Maguire v Mbappe will just be cruel. Donkey sanctuaries around the world will be on high alert.
kane is playing well too.
Don't forget it was his pass to bellingham that opened up senegal.
I don't like him in that "false 9" role, but its been effective today.

If Gareth gets it right they should concede the ball to France and pick them apart on the counter
Feck it, I’m ordering KFC.
Aye especially with no Mane. France on the other hand could have a field day if England defend like this against them.
I was thinking that top top keepers would have saved that
Exactly.
Yeah true, should've specified that I was just talking about Senegal scoring 2.
Will there be a banning of most English posters when it comes home?
We beat Liverpool earlier this season and they had 70% possession. Utd still deserved to win that game
Those first 35 mins, youse were 2nd best
I dont think he is quite that fast
Not sure why Sako was picked ahead of Rashford - done nothing as far as I can tell
It’s Senegal tonight not France
France are overrated, and Mbappe couldn't lace up Lee Sharpe's boots. Bring on the semi's.
Imagine if England had got Musiala. Him, bellingham and foden
Fear for Senegal here. It could get messy as they look for more goals and succumb to the counter.
What nonsense
You didn't dominate anything for most of the half. You scored the 1st goal and Senegal fell apart afterwards. They had been the best side by far before that and should have been 2 goals upDon't worry, France will knock England out.
Those chances for Senegal screwed them over. Gave them the illusion they might actually open england up and outplay them, and left themselves open in turn
This is why i said england were a bad matchup for them

I can see them getting back to 2-1 then England doing them for 3 or 4 as they get reckless.
I completely disagree. I don't think England are a good matchup for France, you have weapons that France will struggle with. And Bellingham hasn't been excellent, no one in that game has.
Senegal had that once chance and spent most of the game pressing and chasing the ballWhat nonsense
A lot of slow passes amongst the back line. Even with their chances, we largely had control of the game but it was all just a bit slow and ponderous, not going anywhere.
Yeah with Southgate would be great on the bench.
One day Pickford will brake someone's leg in half. Again he did his trademark move; both studs up in player's legs.
Stop saying this, we had 29% possession at this point yday
Better than being on the flight home...
Do people realise that if Senegal scored the first goal it the. goes to a goal kick, so the passage of play that led to the second chance, aforementioned as a ‘goal’, would never have happened?What nonsense
People going on like Senegal dominated is hilarious. They had a decent first 30 minutes in which they generated one solid chance.
What chances did England have before the goal? They spent most of the time passing to each other in their own half and regularly lost the ball the few times they progressed to the midfield.
