The team of Senegal has recognized serious personnel losses ahead of the final match of the group stage of the World Championship in Group I. The team's main goalkeeper Edouar Mendi will not play on Friday against Iraq due to injury, having lost the defeat against Norway with a 2:3 draw.. The incident occurred during another half of the match at MetLife Stadium. On the 63rd line of the 34-river Mendi, there is a desire to replace Mori Diav. Medical tests carried out on the second team confirmed that the goalkeeper is unable to enter the field in Toronto.
The Senegalese Football Federation issued an official statement regarding the situation:.
“After the initial medical examinations carried out by the medical staff of the national team, Gravec will not be able to play in the upcoming match. "
Team captain Kalidou Kulibali shared details, indicating that Menda suspects damage to the medial ligament. Vin is also encouraging that this idea hit the morale of the team:.
“It’s been a lot of pain and I’m guessing it’s impacted the Gravians psychologically. I hope there’s nothing too serious, because we really need it.”.
Despite the fact that Senegal conceded six goals in the first two rounds (against France and Norway), Mendy's game allowed the team to save chances for a positive result.
The game against the Norwegians made brilliant saves after shots from Kristoffer Ajer and Martin Odegaard, but they were unable to make up Erling Goland's double and Marcus Pedersen's goal.. Ismaila Sarr scored two goals in the Senegalese warehouse.
The current situation for Levi Teranga is critical. . Senegal absolutely needs victory over Iraq. Three points and a reduction in the difference in balls, most likely, allow the team to reach the 1/16 finals.
