Mondial 2026 (Groupe I) : Le Sénégal étrille l’Irak (5-0) et entretient l’espoir d’une qualification parmi les meilleurs troisièmes
Senegal finished the 2026 World Cup group stage with a dominant performance, thrashing Iraq 5-0 on Friday in the third round of Group I. This victory keeps the Lions' hopes of qualifying for the round of 32 as one of the best third-placed teams alive.
Pape Thiaw's men quickly took control of the match. In the 4th minute, from a corner, Abdoulaye Seck headed the ball, which was deflected by Habib Diarra into the Iraqi net to open the scoring.
Ismaïla Sarr doubled the score in the 56th minute before Pape Guèye scored twice, in the 59th and 71st minutes.
Having come on as a substitute, Iliman Ndiaye completed the offensive display by scoring the fifth goal in the 82nd minute.
Thanks to this large victory, Senegal finishes in 3rd place in Group I with 3 pts and a goal difference of +2.
The Lions will now have to wait for the results of the other groups to find out if they secure one of the tickets reserved for the best third-placed teams.
