1 min KICKOFF! Senegal get us underway!
19 min SHOT! Just like that, we get an opportunity. Niang is played through on goal but after coming under pressure from a defender, the striker dragged a left-footed effort well wide of the far post.
20 min CHANCE! Like buses! A scuffed effort from outside of the area goes into the path of Grosicki, but the winger sends a header over the crossbar. Difficult opening.
38 min GOAL! Poland 0-1 Senegal (Idrissa Gueye)
42 min CHANCE! It should be two! A corner finds Sane and the centre-back has a free header from by the penalty spot. However, the Schalke man heads the ball into the ground and the ball goes off-target.
45+2 min HALF TIME: Poland 0-1 Senegal
52 min CHANCE! Some good work down the left from Senegal leads to a cross being delivered for Mane, but the winger’s first-time half-volley from 14 yards is well-blocked by a defender. That was heading in.
56 min CHANCE! Back come Poland who surge down the left-hand side of the pitch before a cross is delivered to Rybus at the back post, but the defender miscues a volley well wide of the near post.
60 min GOAL! Poland 0-2 Senegal (M’Baye Niang)
70 min CHANCE! Much better from Poland. Piszczek gets to the byline and delivers a low cross towards the near post but Milik sends his close-range effort just wide.
80 min CHANCE! Half a chance for Poland. Another cross comes in from the left flank but Kownacki’s header is weak and N’Diaye makes a comfortable save.
86 min GOAL! Poland 1-2 Senegal (Grzegorz Krychowiak)
