Belgium vs. Senegal Live World Cup 2026 Updates, Scores and Highlights

Another 30 minutes to play after Belgium's late heroics.

Two goals in three minutes and we are TIED

Great finish at near post gives Red Devils life with minutes left.

Just what he does.

Need two goals to tie and KDB/Doku hooked.

What a strike under pressure. Belgium in all kinds of trouble.

In a matchup that looked destined to be a close battle in Seattle, it's been anything but.

Senegal dominated most of the first half, controlling things in Belgium's third and creating chances with clever service. Habib Diarra's goal in the 25th minute capped off a lengthy sequence of advanced Senegal possession, and that was far from the only such spell in the opening period. With long switches out to the wings and runners in the box, Senegal have turned their field position into chances.

Belgium have looked out of sync. They've rarely tried to press – and when they have, it's looked individualistic rather than cohesive. Even when they pushed forward after the hydration break, clear-cut looks on goal have been few and far between. With Jeremy Doku and Kevin De Bruyne on the field, a goal is never too far away for Belgium. But they need a spark, and quickly.

Harry keeps on leveling up

It was the furthest thing from easy, but England came from behind to claim a 2-1 victory over DR Congo. It was Harry Kane's brace that made the difference for England in yet another showing that reinforced the idea that this summer's tournament is being defined by its biggest stars.

To start, DR Congo looked like the more impressive outfit. Brian Cipenga's goal opened the scoring, giving DR Congo a surprising lead – one that nearly doubled when Yoane Wissa's strike hit the woodwork before halftime. DR Congo wasn't afraid to push numbers towards Jordan Pickford's goal in the first half, and they were eager to capitalize on all of England's early sloppiness.

Still, England wouldn't be denied. Kane, who nearly drew a penalty before halftime, and England started to create chances through clever wing play and smart runs into the box. New Manchester City signing Elliot Anderson showed off his tireless motor, too, helping England recover the ball.

Then, between a calm headed finish and a powerful right-footed strike, Kane helped his team back into the game. The England captain scored a long-awaited equalizer in the 75th minute before giving his side the lead in the 86th. From there, England saw out the result.

While DR Congo should be proud of their effort, they'll have to wait another four years before being back at this stage. England only will have to wait until July 5th, when they take on Mexico at the famed Estadio Azteca in the Round of 16.

This is what he DOES

England captain comes up big AGAIN

Are we in for another major upset at this World Cup?

After 45 minutes, DR Congo lead England 1-0 and have made an impressive account of themselves. Unafraid to keep possession against Thomas Tuchel's star-studded outfit, Brian Cipenga's goal in the seventh minute opened the scoring. Yoane Wissa nearly added another in the 42nd minute.

England, for their part, started incredibly slowly. Sloppy play in buildup and loose touches in the attacking half made for a poor response to Cipenga's opener. Still, as you'd expect from a team with their level of quality, England did find themselves threatening Lionel Mpasi-Nzau's goal later in the half. Noni Madueke's dribbling on the right wing has been effective so far, as has Declan Rice's clever off-ball movement. England started to find chances towards the end of the first half, with Harry Kane nearly drawing a penalty. Will they find a way back into this one in the second half?
