The Lions of Teranga face the Lions of Mesopotamia in Toronto, but neither Senegal nor Iraq have yet shown their teeth at the FIFA World Cup 2026. You can live stream this win-or-bust Group I clash around the world for free.
Little has gone right for Senegal in North America, with off-field problems including bonus payments and complaints about camp food overshadowing a tournament that has started with back-to-back defeats by France (3-1) and Norway (3-2). It means the West Africans cannot finish higher than third in Group I, although a win today could still be enough to qualify for the knockout stages. They will need Ismaila Sarr, who has scored two of their three goals so far, to be fit.
Iraq’s chances of reaching the knockout stage are as slim as you can get thanks to a goal difference of -6, after big losses to Norway (4-1) and France (3-0). The latter match, in Philadelphia, was delayed by two hours midway through the match for safety reasons when thunderstorms hit the area, but Iraq cannot claim they would have got a result without the disruption. Realistically, they need to beat Senegal by at least four goals to have any chance of qualification, having scored once in their previous two games.
