Senegal fall 3–1 to France, Norway next
France were too sharp, Senegal fall 3–1
Not the start you wanted. France beat Senegal 3–1 in the World Cup opener at MetLife Stadium (3). The defending champions showed their class and your team could not find the magic of 2002. No repeat of that famous opening-day upset this time.
Norway on Monday, and a Brazilian referee
Next up: Norway. That match goes Monday, June 22 (2). Wilton Pereira Sampaio, the Brazilian referee, has been appointed to the middle (1). This is the one that matters now. Group I is wide open behind France.
