Senegal
Senegal’s emergence as winners of last AFCON, their first continental glory, cemented their well deserved status as one of Africa’s best teams. That triumph came after a second place finish in 2019, their 2nd runners up finish having ended in the same position in 2002.
The year 2002 was a major turning point in Senegalese football history as they shocked many by joining the list of African teams to make the last 8, a feat some countries in the continent are yet to achieve after a couple of World Cup appearances.
Ranked 18th in the World, Aliou Vise’s men will be highly motivated here despite injury concerns for top scorer Saudi Mane as they look to start their 3rd World Cup berth on a positive note.
Netherlands
They will be hoping to take advantage of the huge turnaround they have experienced under Louis Van Gaal which has culminated in formidable run of 12 wins and 3 draws in the last 15 games.
Having already secured a Nations League Semi final ticket, the Dutch national team will turn their attention to the World Cup as they jostle to replicate or better their 1974, 1978 and 2010 performances when they finished second.
With just one European title (1988) to their name, Netherlands are certainly desperate for glory as they look to write their name among one of the great footballing nations in Europe. With one eye on the Nations League, Netherlands know the importance of starting a group phase on a positive note as it could set the tone for what could be a great tournament all round.
