England ruthlessly dismissed Senegal with a 3-0 win to secure their place in the quarter finals of the World Cup 2022.
And coach Gareth Southgate has urged his team to come with their A game when they clash with defending champions France on Saturday in the quarterfinal
Goals in quick succession by England’s Jordan Henderson and Captain Harry Kane saw the team head into the break at 2-0, with Bukayo Saka taking a third goal in the 57th minute.
“ France is an outstanding team with a phenomenal tournament record. They have some outstanding individuals.
“ Without a doubt that’s a game where we have to find our highest possible level,” said Southgate.
Speaking on the Senegal game he added: “The ruthlessness of our execution, the way the team worked off the ball and without the ball”.
“In the first 25, 30 minutes, Senegal had a lot of energy, they pressed well, their shape was good, and really our best opportunities came from winning the ball from them.
“I thought Jude and Hendo in particular were outstanding in that aspect of the game.”
