Senegal will test last chance for JCH-2026
The third round matches of the group stage of the 2026 World Cup are underway. This was reported by Zamin.uz.
At 00:00 Tashkent time, the final round of matches in Group I will begin. Since the playoff qualification scenario has already been resolved, the Senegal and Iraq national teams are competing for third place in the group.
Both teams failed to earn points in the first two rounds. Therefore, this match offers Senegal and Iraq a chance to end their World Cup participation with a respectable result.
In the Senegal lineup, experienced players such as Sadio Mané, Ismaïla Sarr, and Lamin Camara have been left out of the starting XI. Iraq, meanwhile, is attempting to threaten the opponent’s goal through players like Zidane Iqbal, Ali Al-Hammadi, and Ibrahim Bayesh.
