Senegal coach Aliou Cisse bemoaned his team's defensive lapses after England brushed the African champions aside 3-0 in the World Cup last 16 on Sunday, admitting there had been a gulf in quality.
Gareth Southgate insists England's status as favourites in their World Cup last 16 clash with Senegal means nothing because the African champions will pose a serious threat to his team.
AL RAYYAN, Qatar: England skipper Harry Kane has been trying to taper his form in international tournaments so he can peak in the knockout rounds when his team need him the most - starting with Senegal in the World Cup last 16 on Sunday.
DOHA : The prospect of Harry Kane not scoring in any of England's group games at the World Cup might have left fans fearing the worst but instead there is a growing sense of optimism as Gareth Southgate's side eye Sunday's last-16 clash with Senegal.
DOHA : Emotions ran high as Senegal qualified for the knockout phase of the World Cup exactly two years after the death of Papa Bouba Diop, the player who kick-started their 2002 run to the quarter-finals.

The Qataris are already the first hosts to lose the opening game of a World Cup after they were overwhelmed by their nation’s biggest sporting occasion in a 2-0 Group A defeat to Ecuador on Sunday. That puts them in danger of also being only the second host after South Africa in 2010 to be eliminated in the group stage.
