Led by Dortmund’s Jew Bellingham and captain Harry Kane, England made it to the quarter-finals of the World Cup in Qatar – where they met world champions France.

The Senegalese, who reached the knockout stages of a World Cup for the second time, initially balanced the game but did not get back into the game after the Brits double strike just before the break.
