World Cup 2022: England beats Senegal 3-0 at Al Bayt Stadium to clinch quarter-final spot, as it happened

Free-scoring England extended their unbeaten record against African teams with a 3-0 victory over Senegal on Sunday that included a first goal at this World Cup from captain Harry Kane as they set up a quarter-final clash with holders France. 

England had initially looked sluggish against Senegal's pacy forwards, in the two nations' first ever encounter, with a wonderful one-handed save by Jordan Pickford stopping Boulaye Dia from giving the African side a shock lead.

But Jordan Henderson settled England's nerves in the 38th minute, stroking the ball home after being played in by Jude Bellingham at the end of a lovely passing move.
