—

Aliou Cisse Senegal becomes the tenth victim African nation who have been eliminated in the round of 16 by European countries in their last twelfth attempt.

Jordan Henderson opened the scoresheet in the 38th minute, giving England the lead before half-time. Harry Kane scored his first World Cup goal during the added minute before half-time. Bukayo Saka made it 3-0 for England in the 57th minute. Senegal tried to return to the game with nearer attempts but unfortunately could not get one back against England.
