Both managers invited change in the second half. England presented Jude Bellingham, Noni Madueka and Morgan Gibbs-White in an effort to regain control, while Senegal brought Cheikh Sabaly and Pope Gueye, who would both make a key contribution.

The turning point arrived in the 62nd minute. Kalidou Koulibaly slipped the point through the ball in the Habib Diara path, which ended up from a firm angle near Henderson to bring Senegal a 2-1 lead.

The goal was swinging the rhythm of England, and although Bellingham briefly thought he had equalized, Var excluded the effort for the upgrade handball.

England continued to push forward, creating a chance through Madueka and Bellingham, but they lacked a superior advantage in front of the goal.

Replacing Ivan Toney missed the late head of the workplace while the frustration was mounted.

Senegal has sealed victory in a time of stop with a counter -attack textbook. Lamine Camara led the charge and found Sabaly unmarked in the box, and the midfielder calmly inserted into the lower corner to achieve it 3-1.

The result will be to care for England, which seemed separated in defense and scratched in the attack while the game wore. And after performing a few days earlier on the performance against Andorra, her eyebrows were raised to the national team.
