Senegal not so friendly in stunning win over England
Senegal have became the first African team to beat England in 22 games, their 3-1 win in a friendly at the City Ground prompting boos from disappointed home fans. Senegal stretched their unbeaten streak to 24 games, thanks to goals from Ismaila Sarr, Habib Diarra and Cheikh Sabaly. England's loss on Tuesday (Wednesday AEST), which included a disallowed late goal from Jude Bellingham for a handball in the build-up, was their first defeat in four games under new manager Thomas Tuchel. "Not good enough," captain Harry Kane told ITV. "We had moments, but with and without the ball things aren't clicking, we're not finding the right tempo. We've lost that aggressive nature that we had." England, who made 10 changes from Saturday's 1-0 lacklustre World Cup qualifying win over Andorra, took the lead when Kane struck in the seventh minute after Senegal goalkeeper Edouard Mendy saved Anthony Gordon's shot but spilled the ball into the striker's path. The hosts conceded for the first time under Tuchel when Sarr caught Kyle Walker napping to poke in Nicolas Jackson's cross in the 40th minute. The visitors doubled their tally in the 62nd minute when Diarra latched on to a ball over the top then fired through goalkeeper Dean Henderson's legs. Sabaly struck deep into stoppage time, prompting boos from England fans after the final whistle. "We're not going to panic, but we know we need to be better," Kane said. "New ideas, there's new players coming into the team that don't have experience at international level. "It's a mixture of things, but no excuses. We need to find it quick, the World Cup is going to come around really fast, so every camp is really important right now." Senegal peppered Henderson with nine shots on target to England's four, including an early header from Sarr that the goalkeeper pushed wide of the post. Gordon squandered a glorious chance to give England a two-goal lead in the first half when he mis-hit Walker's cross from close range. Mendy made a great late save to deny England what would have been an equaliser from Bukayo Saka, before Senegal added their third. "Disappointing result, not sure if maybe we didn't deserve a little bit more result-wise," Tuchel said. "But felt again a bit frozen, not active enough for a long time of the match.''

England Booed After Losing to Senegal for First Defeat Under Coach Thomas Tuchel
Boos rang out as England left the field after a 3-1 loss to Senegal in a friendly Tuesday which marked the first defeat of Thomas Tuchel's tenure as coach. Senegal recovered from conceding Harry Kane's early goal to become the first team from Africa to record a victory over England. In World Cup qualifying Tuesday, the Netherlands beat Malta 8-0 and Austria beat San Marino 4-0. England's landmark loss Kane was the only player retained in Tuchel's starting lineup from last week's 1-0 win over Andorra, which had caused Tuchel to criticize his team's attitude. The changes brought little improvement. Kane's record-extending 73rd England goal gave his team the lead in the seventh minute, when the captain bundled in after a goalkeeping error by Edouard Mendy. Senegal was a step above over Tuchel's previous England opponents Albania, Latvia and Andorra, and England conceded for the first time in his tenure in the 40th minute. Nicolas Jackson chased down a long pass and hooked it back for the onrushing Ismaila Sarr to score after having outpaced Kyle Walker. Senegal's second goal followed a long ball to Habib Diarra, who seemed to be attempting a pass of his own when the ball deflected in off goalkeeper Dean Henderson's leg. Jude Bellingham thought he'd leveled the game for England with a goal at a corner in the 84th, but it was ruled out for an earlier handball by Levi Colwill. Senegal made it 3-1 when Cheikh Sabaly finished off a counter in stoppage time. Depay ties a Dutch record Memphis Depay tied the scoring record for the Netherlands men's national team with two goals in the eight-goal win over Malta. Depay scored in the ninth and 16th minutes for his 49th and 50th goals, equaling a record set by team great Robin van Persie. Depay hit 50 goals in his 102nd game for the Netherlands, while van Persie's 50th came in his 101st game in 2015. In other World Cup qualifiers in Europe on Tuesday, Romania won 2-0 against Cyprus, Serbia beat Andorra 3-0 and Latvia drew 1-1 with Albania. Finland's game against Poland was suspended because of a medical emergency with Finland leading 2-1.

Senegal became the first African team to beat England in 22 games on Tuesday, winning 3-1 in a friendly at the City Ground thanks to goals from Ismaila Sarr, Habib Diarra and Cheikh Sabaly. Senegal stretched their unbeaten streak to 24 games in the game at the home stadium of Nottingham Forest in West Bridgford, Nottinghamshire. England's loss, which included a disallowed late goal from Jude Bellingham for a handball in the build-up, was their first defeat in four games under new manager Thomas Tuchel.
