England 1–3 Senegal: This is Thomas Tuchel’s first loss as manager of England.
Senegal defeated England 3-1 at the City Ground after rallying from behind, handing Thomas Tuchel his first loss as Three Lions manager.
England got out to a quick start and seized the lead after only seven minutes when Harry Kane tapped home from close range following a somber performance against Andorra on Saturday.

Just before halftime, however, Ismaila Sarr spotted Kyle Walker dozing and blasted past Dean Henderson as Senegal clawed their way back into the match and earned an equalizer.
It was Henderson – given a rare start ahead of Jordan Pickford – who was the busier of the two goalkeepers, and he was unable to stop Habib Diarra beating him from a tight angle to put Senegal in front in the 62nd minute.
Jude Bellingham thought he had rescued a late equaliser for England, but the goal was ruled out by VAR for a Levi Colwill handball, and Senegal then netted a third on the counter in added time to wrap up a famous victory.
