Senegal has gone undefeated in the World Cup since 2002. They’re looking to make it a three-time streak this year, but they must first get wins in their last two matches. With six World Cup goals at just 24 years of age, Enner Valencia has established himself as one of the most exciting and reliable forwards in the world. His 67% conversion rate from shots on target is a reflection of this, with only three players rumored to have a higher success rate.
Senegal were the better team in the 1st half. They attacked very well as a team and defense was very tight. I Sarr scored the first goal for them in the last minute of 1st half. In the 2nd half Ecuador needed to press more intensely and try to score. Otherwise they will be out of the World Cup. So the final score is Ecuador 1-2 Senegal. Senegal goes to the last sixteennt table of Group (A) after this match.
