Dont really like the playing from the back stuff, especially when we play with pace we look so dangerous. I guess its tournament football and we cant play at that tempo for 90 mins, we will burn ourselves out

That miserable Irishman is needed back in his local department store grotto for Christmas. As the one with England in the world famous SZ sweepstake I'm rightfully claiming hisITV panel place.

Get in

England 3 Senegal 0

Bukayo Saka



The England fans are jumping up and down celebrating.

That was stunning from Phil Foden and a smart finish from Bukayo Saka. The quality has been on show.

That is three goals for the tournament now for Saka and 12 goals for England in total.

They have never scored more at a World Cup.

 

[RHB]

3-0 Saka, all over bar the shouting.

 

[The Big Dady]

All the pre-game chat was about why Marcus Rashford wasn't starting. But surely this is exactly the scenario Southgate will have wanted.

Jack Grealish is also on. Bukayo Saka's work is done. He departs along with Phil Foden, who bagged just the two assists.

A standing ovation from the England fans for Bukayo Saka and Phil Foden as they take the long way around the pitch and back to the dugout.

One lesson from this eve is that I do think that our drummer needs to step his game up a bit. His performance at Aldershot was not quite as persistent as this Senagalise lot.

 

[The Big Dady]

In amongst all the excitement, you may not have noticed that Harry Kane is one goal away from equalling Wayne Rooney's all-time goalscoring record for England.

 

[The Big Dady]

England still no cards in the tournament.

 

[The Big Dady]

Kalvin Phillips and Mason Mount replace Jude Bellingham and John Stones.

 

[The Big Dady]

The England fans are singing Jingle Bells now, declaring how nice it is to see their side win away.

Feels a bit weird during a World Cup in Qatar

A rendition of "God Save the King" by the England fans as the final minutes tick away.

The Senegalese are still banging those drums and dancing. They must be knackered!

Full-Time

England 3 Senegal 0

So the African Champions beaten

Now bring on the French and reigning World Champions on Saturday KO 7.00.pm.

 

[The Big Dady]

Am I all on my own or are you all in Qatar or watching on the tele?

Pretty composed performance once we got our first, France will be a much bigger test but I think we've got a decent chance, I'd start with the same XI against them.

 

[Evening Echo]

FOOTBALL fans across south-east Essex are celebrating England's 3-0 win against Senegal in the last 16 of the World Cup tonight.
