Despite scoring two goals, Senegal failed to secure a point, and their chances of advancing have been significantly reduced. Ismaïla Sarr was among the players who kept the African side in the match, but Norway's efficiency decided the close result. The defeat leaves Senegal in a complicated position ahead of the final round of the group. isport.cz ↗
