Ahead of their second-round showdown at the ongoing 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar, Senegal stars Kalidou Koulibaly and Idrissa Gueye have fired a strong warning to England. The Teranga Lions will face off with the Three Lions on Sunday, December 4 and the Senegalese stars are optimistic.
The AFCON champions booked a place in the competition’s knockout phase following a nervy 2-1 win over Ecuador on Tuesday.
Senegal finished second in Group A behind the Netherlands and have now set up a massive showdown with England at the Al Bayt Stadium.
After qualifying for the next round, Koulibaly said via Complete Sports: “Don’t party, don’t be happy. We did something good, but it’s only the beginning. England or whoever, we will do everything to win the game. We are Senegal, we fear no-one. Lot’s of teams don’t want to play against us.” On his path, Gueye added: “The last 16 is not the objective. We see beyond that. We have no limits. We have a squad to go far. Playing like this, we can do something really interesting in this competition.”
