City’s cyborg has now scored in 12 straight matches, and in his last five appearances he has racked up an incredible 16 goals, always with at least a brace. That takes him to four goals at the World Cup, level with Mbappé and just one behind La Pulga . For Senegal, meanwhile, the situation is getting more and more complicated. After the defeat against France comes another loss, leaving the Lions of Teranga with their backs against the wall: they will need to beat Iraq by a good margin and hope for favorable results elsewhere. 💥 Senegal give it a go, but Norway are too much Despite Norway dominating almost constantly throughout the match, Senegal still managed to score twice through Sarr . But the African side looked too sloppy, especially in defense, and the final scoreline could easily have been much heavier. The turning point came just before halftime. After keeping his side afloat with another great save from Odegaard, Mendy could only watch helplessly as Koulibaly made a mistake that opened the door for Pedersen . The Torino defender, who had come on after just 13 minutes for the injured Ryerson, scored his first international goal and broke the deadlock. DAZN’S PLAYER RATINGS HERE In the second half, two more defensive mistakes gave Senegal no chance. Especially with a goal machine like Haaland lurking. The Viking made no mistake and, in the space of 10 minutes, grabbed another brace. It finished 3-2 to Norway, who fully deserved their place in the round of 32 and will now battle France for top spot in the group. Senegal are still alive, but their fate is no longer entirely in their own hands. 🇯🇴 JORDAN-ALGERIA 🇩🇿 Two corners changed everything. Algeria came from behind against Jordan and remain firmly in the race for second place in a group dominated by Argentina , while for Sellami’s side the World Cup ends here. Jordan started well by taking the lead early in the first half and gave away very little for over an hour. Then, however, they collapsed on the small details and were punished twice from corners. Algeria gradually raised the tempo of their play, but paid for an off night from Mahrez and ball circulation that was often too slow. In the end, two moments were enough to turn the result around and keep their qualification dream alive. For Jordan, however, there is no longer any chance of progressing. The match followed the expected script: Algeria controlling possession, Jordan aggressive and ready to strike on the counter. Mahrez had the best chances of the first half for the North Africans, but could not find the decisive spark. Instead, it was Sellami’s team who took the lead in the 36th minute, capitalizing on a buildup mistake by Zerrouki and going ahead through Alrashwdan . Algeria stepped up the pressure and in the second half found the equalizer through Benbouali, who headed in a Mahrez corner after Abulaila’s uncertain attempt to come out and claim it. Late on, Algeria’s push was rewarded once again from a set piece: Hadj Moussa’s corner, Bensebaini’s flick-on, and Gouiri’s decisive touch for 2-1. A hugely important comeback that keeps Algeria’s hopes alive : it will all now come down to the direct showdown with Austria, who have the same number of points but a better goal difference. For Jordan, meanwhile, the World Cup dream ends here. This article was translated into English by Artificial Intelligence. You can read the original version in 🇮🇹 here.
