Senegal v Iraq

Summary

Senegal v Iraq (Kick-off 8.00pm). Coverage of both teams' concluding Group I match, held at Toronto Stadium in Canada. Having already faced two fancied teams in Norway and France, this contest may prove vital to both sides' chances of progressing. Senegal secured their passage into the knockout rounds four years ago with a 2-1 win against Ecuador in their final group game. Iraq, on the other hand, have never previously gone beyond the group stage, but with eight of the 12 third-placed teams going through to the last 32, they are likely to come into this encounter with a chance of doing so regardless of the results of their opening two matches. Both of these teams have lost their first two group games which means that whoever wins here will finish third in the group. Whoever finishes third may still have a chance of progressing to the knock-out stages, but will have to wait until all the group games are finished
