Mondial 2026 : Le calcul est simple, voici le scénario exact pour que le Sénégal arrache sa qualification à Toronto
A simple victory against Iraq this Friday in Toronto will not be enough to guarantee the Lions of Teranga's happiness. To erase the defeats suffered against France (1-3) and Norway (2-3), Senegal, currently stuck on zero points with a negative goal difference of -3, absolutely must beat the Iraqis by the largest possible margin. A win, regardless of the score, would already allow the national team to overtake Scotland, who also have a goal difference of -3. Even better, if Pape Thiaw's team manages to win by at least two goals, they would definitively leapfrog South Korea in the race for one of the best third-placed teams, thanks to having scored more goals in the competition.
Once this resounding victory at BMO Field is secured, the Lions will immediately need to turn their attention to the calculations and monitor the other pitches. A big win would provisionally move Senegal up to fifth place among the third-placed teams in the group stage. This would put maximum pressure on their direct rivals in Groups G, H, J, K, and L, who will play their matches later. Although the national team is no longer entirely in control of its own destiny, Opta's statistical predictions estimate that Senegal would retain a 56.90% chance of qualifying for the round of 32 if, and only if, they complete the mission against Iraq brilliantly this Friday.
The cards are on the table: the Lions know exactly what they have to do in Toronto.
