France vs Senegal Extended Highlights 🌎🏆 2026 FIFA World Cup™

Welcome along.The sun is beaming from a cloudless sky over New York, New Jersey.It's a spell for choice.William Mbappe winning his 99th gap, and he's supported by Ballon d 'Or winner Ousmane Dembele, Bundesliga Player of the Year Michael Ollise, and the exciting Desiree Due.who is making his World Cup debut today.The only slight surprise there, Teo Hernandez preferred at left back to Lucas Dean.

Seven of this 11 started in the final four years ago.That's how strong France are again.Here's the Senegal team, they're fielding eight of the team which played in that tempestuous Afghan final.And they're actually stronger here because their key defender, Khalidou Koulibaly, can play today.In form, Ismail Assar is preferred to Everton's Ileman Ndiaye up front.And Sadio Mane, the former Liverpool star, is still a big, big threat.

He scored two recently in that match.Jackson leads the Rays, have to do it on his own.He nearly did.Nicholas Jackson hit the post.

Ian Early touches getting away from it and this time they nearly get punished for it.The ball slid in behind and as Nicholas Jackson runs at Opa McConn a little under and onto his left and Magnone gets a little bit luckier here.I think he's leaning to his left.I think it's going far post.Nearly went in twice.The first time off the post, the second time off his foot.

It wasn't a head injury, but this doesn't look that good for Ismail Asai.He's stayed down a long time now, let's hope.Diata, right back, space for Camara here.Not much pressure on the ball from France.Mane, he's got him behind here.Sadio Mane cuts it back, Jackson, is that a save?

This is a great chance for Senegal to put them ahead.What an opportunity that was.Not taken.They've looked a gift horse in the mouth there.

The entire stadium is waiting for this to hit the net.Mane gets inside, Alise holds him up, and it falls perfectly to Saar.Just leans back and pumps it over the bar.Well, what a finish to the first half.

Lost to Reflecton, I think, but Senegal had the better of that.They hit the post as well.

France...Who knows with Norway, Iraq, a little bit of the unknown for these teams, but...You finish second or third and your path becomes a lot more difficult.Now France, they can beat anybody in the world, so I don't think they're too concerned about that, but they do need to be a little careful.

Dewey here.Gets the shot away and he's not far away.That's the best yet from France.Desiree Dewey.

Well, this is a little better from France.Upamecano.Little clipped ball.Into that same area that Mbappe was getting space in early in the first half.He's been there without winning a major trophy for them.

Dispossessed.Opportunity here for Alissa.It's a big, big save by Edouard Mendy.

Great chance.It really was, and Koundé does a good job there poking the ball away.Alise in space, touches perfect to get it out in front of him.Mendy makes himself big, just gets enough of it to deflect it over the bar.That is phenomenal goalkeeping.What do you think?

Mendy is certainly making his case for the man of the match.That's a much better first touch from Mbappe.Gets it out of his feet, just can't get it far enough away.And again, Mendy making himself really big in the important moment to keep that man off the scoreboard.certainly look like a penalty referee's decision was in with the fourth official well check this out again Mane's challenge certainly looked like it but as you watch it in slow motion I'm not sure he actually touches him Mark Clattenburg what do you think?my first impression was penalty kick but when you see the replay it's certainly not a penalty kick because I don't believe the defender touches the ball he's been there and done it And here's a look from his view.

I can actually see from there why he doesn't give it.It doesn't look like there's a bunch of contact.It's just his left leg.As his left leg kind of gallops over Mane, it clips the back of Mane's right leg.Yeah.The attacker initiated the contact and the final decision is goal kick.

Abdullah Al -Shiri from Saudi Arabia.It's well rescued by Manuel.Stayed in play all night.Koundé.Oh, a lovely turn.Alisa.

That is poetry.That was a telepathy between the two players.

That was a magic move.Magical indeed.Elisa sees the defender coming, just turns inside.The timing of this is excellent.And I cannot tell you how good this is.Not this time.

And you felt it coming in, a much better start, certainly than the first half.Mbappé was a little slow to get going in the first half, but the timing of this run, Olise, the man Thierry Henry has been talking about, fantastic ball, slid down the right side of Koulibaly, and the timing of this as it comes for Mbappé to just swing his hips and bend it around Mendy into the far post.1 -0 France, and you have to say now, absolutely deserve the way they've started this second half.

This is 13th World Cup goal, and with that goal, he's equaled Olivier Giroud's French record.This midnight show is a must -watch for World Cup fans.Surprisingly remembered amid the mayhem of a World Cup match.Breaks in behind, here.Send the ball with a chance to equalize.Goes up, the flag goes up, it's going to be ruled out.

Look like it, they'll have a look.And he's certainly offside his fantastic finish.Just a yard offside there.

I'll tell you what, James Corden must have a lot of pull.And Miroslav, close up.Koundé lays it inside.Alise.Koundé deflected.Alise trying to invent something.

Absolutely buzzing.Yeah.Dewey.Oh, the cross shot.Mendy has to make another save.And this second half is becoming a France show.

Dewey gets it onto his left foot, and that slight deflection you can see.

Ibrahim Mbaye, 18 -year -old, they hope he'll be a breakout star.He made his debut against Brazil in November, plays for Paris Saint -Germain, and saw quite a bit of action.Kamara off, and there is Mbaye to take his place.Tough line to toe, and we'll see how they approach it.Don't tell Norway they're going to lose to France.I said we assume.

Juve, good ball there.

opportunity Jackson again that was a thing of beauty that cross this is a massive chance Jackson just slides behind upa Makano in between the two center backs he and Saliba and just leaning back you can see it come off his foot almost off his ankle there big chance there for Nicholas Jackson France are going to make their first substitution bringing Bradley Barcola left winger for Paris Saint -Germain

Turned it on in the second half and they're going to go home with the points.

Not big enough.Just as he lunges, slides his foot under the ball.2 -0 to France.Cute finish, isn't it, Landon?

Just a little dink over the goalkeeper.Didier Deschamps and all the French fans can relax now....moment that is for Bradley Barcola....to threaten this game for quite a long time, but France have taken over in the second half, and they're beginning to exploit this place as Boulibaly is beaten by Barcola.He's in the mood.

Harry Kane and England play.It's just going to get better and better.Look at that first strike.Ball not moving.I think Magnum might want this one back.But look at the movement on this.

Just strikes it perfectly.Knuckles a little bit.Catches Magnum off balance.He's made a real howler there.

Punching it into his own goal.It was well hit though.

What a hit.Well, you never do know.Again, Olise at the heart of it, dribbling through.Mbappé knows exactly what he wants to do when he turns here.A little bend on it, laces through the ball, over the outstretched arms of Edouard Mendy.And what a fantastic goal.

This game really came to life here in the last few minutes.

It means Mbappé is now on his own as France's all -time leading goal scorer.He has been carrying a bit of an injury a lot of the later stages of the season.the referee that was another dodgy moment this ball comes in it deflects just as he jumps he's on his way down enough of his fingertip on it to keep it out but what a finish to this game well very eventful killing Mbappe with two Bradley Bacola with one the teenager Mbaye scoring for Senegal some second half here France really woke up in that second half they win by three goals to one here hope you enjoyed it back to the studio
