    FT: Ecuador 1-2 Senegal! Full-time in Qatar and Senegal qualify for the last 16! Senegal took the lead just before half-time with a penalty, but Caicedo levelled in the 68th minute. Koulibaly then got the winner for Senegal two minutes later to deservedly book their place in their knockouts. That's all from us, thanks for your company and see you again soon!

    HT: Ecuador 0-1 Senegal! Half-time in Qatar and a 44th minute Sarr penalty is the difference in this one. Senegal have been the better side and had chances through I Gueye and Dia early on before the game calmed down. However, the penalty has put them in a good position. Ecuador need to change things. Back shortly!
  • 45'
    45+3: Handbags here as an Ecuador player is down off the pitch. It didn't look like anything. Sabaly leaves his foot in on Valencia, but Valencia's playacting is absolutely embarrassing.

  • 45'
    Six added minutes.
  • 45'
    You have to say that Senegal have been the better team. Ecuador have done very little.
