England booked their place in the last-eight with a comfortable 3-0 win over Senegal. After a slow start to the contest, the Three Lions established a two-goal cushion late in the final eight minutes of the opening half through goals from Jordan Henderson & Harry Kane.
Bukayo Saka made it 3-0 before the hour mark and that was enough for Gareth Southgate’s side to book a meeting with defending champions France in the quarter-final on Dec 11 - 12:30 am.
