If you’d said it was even I’d have given you that. They had one good opportunity with Sarr and got through another time via a handball. They didn’t really do anything while England controlled possession (also creating chances, Kane’s cross that Saka couldn’t get to for instance).What nonsenseYou 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 up
Day 15: France vs Poland | England vs Senegal (Last 16 3&4)
- Thread starter Samid
- Start date
There are levels to this game and France will illustrate that against England
The sheer number of posters putting France up there on a pedestal when they were struggling against Poland in their first half, They are not France 1998 or Brazil 2002, come on....
Poor decision from Henderson there, should have just got a corner from that position.
Bit harsh, no? People are enjoying a 19 year old being instrumental in powering the team to a 2 goal lead in a World Cup knock out game.
They’re not even France 2018
still good enough to win it in 37 minutes if we play as we did here
Tell me you want england to lose without telling meWhat nonsense
65% possession and we were the worse team. 2 goals and both were "lucky" I suppose.
But no. senegal deserve to score?
State of some of yous.
That's football for you.
Japan didn't do shit against Germany until they scored the equalizer, and Germany could have scored more than 2 in the first half, but their finishing was poor.
But people was cheering that because it was Germany losing.
if you don't take your chances you deserve to lose.
True, England didn't look dangerous but had most of the ball and were in control. The game wasn't one sided but Senegal weren't the better team, unless you look at them from an underdog perspective, then they have done well to hold back a better team
Its par for course isnt it.
Those that want us to lose, will see what they want to see.
Gotta love hypocrisy eh
this senegal team isn't anywhere near as good as the Cameroon side of 1990 which many pundits were referencing in the last few days
They're easily better than both in fact
Has walker lost his pace?
Like a lot of the African teams, Senegal couldnt hit a cows backside with a banjo
Definitely lost a step or two
Probably still carrying an injury or let's say not up to speed yet.
I was about to ask that - doesn't look anything special to me
get saka the feck off and put Rashford on to finish this.
That England Bench
Kane passing is so good
It's a worry if he isn't fully fit and we are banking on him dealing with Mbappe.
Maguire....
started this half as we started the third... dull
Walker needed a game. He's a bit rusty but 90 minutes should be a big help for him.
Maguire has been shocking.
Poor from Foden
Credit Maguire for trying to make it interesting.
Bellingham has been the standout but I've also been impressed with Henderson's willingness to try and force an issue
He is saving Rashy for France
Southgate has to ensure he uses his bench effectively. He always seems to stick with the XI too long
and as for Lee Dixon's droning drivel... the least said the better
Was thinking him at RCB to help deal with mbappe but it might not work
Saka 
No, the goals were well taken. The 2nd in particular came after Senegal had already collapsed. Bellingham did very well for both of them. Your possession I'm guessing will be almost completely focused around your own half since your defenders simply passed it between each other for most of the half. Senegal definitely had the better chances to score before the England goal. Don't even see how you could suggest otherwise. Since the 1st goal you've obviously been the better side.Tell me you want england to lose without telling me

the Worst England player so far tonight
Greedy from Saka.
Saka should've passed.
Everything good in attacking areas for England is coming through Kane
