Two more quarter-final places for the FIFA 2022 World Cup in Qatar were to be decided on Sunday, day 15 of the tournament.

Defending champions France looked comfortable in their 3-1 win over Poland.

Olivier Giroud now holds the record for goals scored for France after he put France 1-0 ahead in the first half. Kylian Mbappe continued his impressive World Cup run with two goals in the second half.

At 10pm Doha time (7pm GMT), Senegal, who have played impressively despite the loss of talisman Sadio Mane to injury on the eve of the tournament, will be hoping to score an upset against a confident-looking England side.

Senegal are one of two African teams left in the tournament. The other, Morocco, will take on Spain for a place in the quarter-finals on Tuesday.
