Senegal vs Iraq 26/06/2026 20:00 pm.

I don't have much hope anymore for Senegoaa they too have started having issues over unpaid bonuses and salaries.

What a shame as they could have gone deep in this tournament.

I don't blame the players sha.

Only hope for Senegal is to win by 3goals or more.

Not likely to happen though.

Iraq to win

Atleast for a token

What are they going to do with the win even if they mistaking get it

Except if they are going to score anything from 5 goals, anything short of that, they are out of the tournament

Senegal had a very poor preparation for this world cup. The corruption in their FA was just so crazy

Imagine dropping their main chief cook, the players are forced to be ordering food outside as the assigned chef's food is not that local taste.

A 3-0 win could see them advance.
Needless to say they haven't been equally brilliant..With Tunisia out and likely Senegal too, Africa could see a record 8 teams qualify to the round of 32. I hope the Ex Italian coach is watching..Africa would definitely have the last laugh..

Cote D'ivoire, Ghana, Egypt, South Africa and Morocco have mathematically advanced..Cape Verde stands a good chance of beating Saudi Arabia, DRC also stands a good chance of beating Uzbekistan. Algeria beating Austria isn't impossible but all they could really need is a draw to advance..

Senegal..no fall hand o

It won't be nice for African champs to miss out of R32

Senegal!

I almost gave up on that country when I heard their coach saying some Islamic dedication stuffs and how Islam is more important than anything in the world

Another black African country gone and dusted with phooolishness

Senegal XI: Diaw, Diatta, Seck, Niakhate, Jakobs, Gueye, Diarra, Camara, Mbaye, Sarr, Mane.

🇮🇶 Iraq XI: Basil, Putros, Sulaka, Hashem, Doski, Al-Ammari, Qasem, Iqbal, Bayesh, Jasim, Al-Hamadi. Senegal 4-1 Iraq. Rooting for the African side in this dicey match

You will be free the day you decide to respect people and what they believe in.

Trust me, it'll give you peace.

Senegal scores! Can they score at least 3 more goals to improve their chances of qualifying?

Senegal scores they need goals

Iraq down to 10 men just 12 Minutes into the game. I come dey pity for them. Very terrible world cup outing for them.

Many teams are on 4 points already,they will likely go home. Even Ghana seem not to totally save at this point because they may heavily lose to experienceed Croatians who will do everything possible to stay pass group stage.

I don't think so. Ghana will most likely get a draw against croatia.

I feel that one African country will fall out instead of Senegal. Two of the African countries still seeking qualification might possibly end in 3pts and then Senegal will just go through.

One or 2 teams with 3 points will still scale through

Lol

Dont mind them.Despite the Senegalese calling themselves moslems,we all know who the arabs are truly supporting this evening in their match against iraq...those they consider the real moslems
Black Africans no just wan get sense

It's a shame how this vibrant Senegal team slumped after the AFCON to the extent of struggling to qualify for the 2nd round of the Worldcup.....shocking. I hope they can score more goals against this Iraqi team with 1 man down

Driymane:
Senegal scores they need goals

Will they make it out of the group stage if they score more?

That’s interesting

There was a topic here on Nairaland last Sunday 👇

Faith On The World Stage: World Cup Players Are Boldly Proclaiming Christ
https://www.nairaland.com/8695213/faith-world-stage-world-cup#139786264

A. How did you feel when the players were celebrating Christ at the exact same tournament? Do you think any public display of faith ruins a team, or is it specifically Islamic expressions that bother you?

B. Ghana just held England to a 0-0 draw using a highly disciplined, tactical defensive setup. Yet, because a fan blew white powder in the stands and a local spiritualist joked about hexing Harry Kane, critics dismissed it as 'juju' and they even left the hardwork of the Ghanaian team that was robbed a clear penalty that could have won them the game for juju that gave them a draw. Would your reaction be different if the Senegalese coach was praising his marabout before this game instead of Islam/Christianity?

PS: Senegal has a 90% Muslim population

This Senegal aren't getting 3 more goals tonight.
Nothing is so special about them

Senegal under 2.5 ft stake high guy's

This Senegal team is just annoying tonight. They ought to kill the game in this first half

2-0 .. Senegal
they need atleast 2 more goals to increase their chances depending on what happens in the other matches as well

So this Senegalese fit score like this na him dem dey play rubbish since day 1

Baba Nicholas Jackson the chief waster of Football don enter...abeg prove me wrong...score a goal for the sake of Senegal and Africa...
3-0!....I barely finished my thoughts about Jackson...then comes that cracker from Gueye who just came in..

Senegal 3 goals up! The goal difference has levelled up

Senegal 3 goals up.

Iraq - 0

Good gd for senegal

P Gueye

4-0 loading ....
Iraq has crumbled
