Poland seemed promising in the first five minutes of the game but a sudden change of fortunes saw Sadio Mane-led team take an upper hand in the game as they built pressure with multiple attacks. Earlier, a sedate first-half was brought back to life in the 37th minute after an own goal by Poland's Thiago Cionek that gave Senegal a 1-0 lead going in the second-half. Then on the hour, woeful defending allowed Mbaye Niang to tap home into an empty net before Poland pulled one back via Grzegorz Krychowiak's late header. The African side took a 37th-minute lead when Idrissa Gueye's shot took a massive deflection off defender Thiago Cionek to wrong foot the keeper. A spirited Senegal beat Poland 2-1 in a Group H match at the Spartak stadium, Moscow and became the first African team to win a game at FIFA World Cup 2018.
