Both teams were fighting equally to secure themselves for the knockout stage which resulted in 0-0 until halftime. Then came the 84th minute of the match when the star of the match broke the deadlock as said by FIFA’s official twitter account. This man raced in behind the defense after an excellent ball by Frenkie De Jong. He got past Edouard Mendy to get to the ball and headed it straight into the top corner.
- JUST FOR YOU –
With 1-0 match was already in favour of the Dutch but Davy Klaassen confirmed the win with another goal in the final minute of added time. Memphis Depay had a role in the second goal, after going one-on-one with Kalidou Koulibaly and then beating the defender, before seeing his shot getting parried away by Mendy. But it only went straight to the path of Klaassen, who slammed it into an empty net.
The Senegal team was definitely missing Sadio Mane.
