Senegal Stun England with Historic Win in Friendly Showdown

Senegal has made football history by defeating England 3-1 in a friendly, becoming the first African team to do so in 22 meetings. Despite Harry Kane’s early opener, goals from Ismaila Sarr, Habib Diarra, and Cheikh Sabaly sealed the win for the visitors, extending Senegal’s unbeaten run to 24 games. England, under new manager Thomas Tuchel, looked disjointed with 10 squad changes from their previous match and struggled to match Senegal’s intensity. Captain Kane admitted the team lacked tempo and aggression, while Tuchel lamented defensive lapses and sluggish play. Though England had moments of promise, including near-equalizers from Saka and Bellingham, they were ultimately outplayed in both discipline and desire.
