Senegal Widens Qualification Chances with Victory over Belgium
July 2, 2026 · Global
Senegal doubled their lead against Belgium with a goal from Ismaila Sarr, moving them closer to qualification for the last 16 of the 2026 World Cup.
Senegal managed to double their lead over Belgium in the 51st minute, leaving the Belgian squad down! After a golden opportunity wasted by Diarra, the Africans found a worthy second goal: a long ball from Jakobs saw Sarr race through the Belgian back line, shield the ball with his body and then pepper Courtois with a fierce shot that was out of reach.
