*​Senegal need to avoid losing to advance to next round
*Colombia guaranteed to progress with victory

Senegal head coach Aliou Cisse and Colombia head coach Jose Pekerman won't be needing to write inspiring pre-match team talks for their next game. The significance of this encounter speaks for itself and the importance of the match will not be lost on a single Senegalese or Colombian player, with a spot in the 2018 FIFA World Cup Russia™ Round of 16 at stake.

Colombia are coming off an electric performance in a 3-0 victory over Poland that kept their knockout round qualification hopes alive after they lost to Japan 2-1 in their opening match, while Senegal drew 2-2 with the Samurai Blue after beating the Poles 2-1 at the start of their campaign.

Did you know?
Senegal's only World Cup finals match against a side from CONMEBOL was a 3-3 group stage draw with Uruguay at Korea/Japan 2002. Current Lions of Teranga coach Cisse played in that game, which secured Senegal's place in the Round of 16.
