⚽Today in the World Cup’s 16th round:

  • France v Poland (5pm): Following a surprising setback to Tunisia at the closing of the group stage, previous World Cup champions France are seeking a smooth path to victory to restore confidence in their players and fans, while Poland is hoping to take its first appearance in the Round of 16 since 1986 and are looking to take their journey to the finish line.
  • England v Senegal (9pm): Senegal hopes to repeat its 2002 achievements — in only its third World Cup participation — and qualify for the quarter finals, while the English “descendants of the game” need a win to put them back in the position that they expect.
