This is a big match right from the start for both countries. France won in 2018 and were finalists in 2022, so there are high expectations. But Senegal also has ambition and will want to prove it from the outset against one of the favorites. It will undoubtedly be very intense, and we hope for a great spectacle.
France will need to start this World Cup strongly, facing a dangerous match against a Senegalese side that has the strengths to pose real problems. It will likely be exciting; let’s hope for a good pace and plenty of entertainment.
