SUMMARY:FIFA World Cup 2026: Senegal vs Norway
DESCRIPTION:Senegal face Norway in a FIFA World Cup 2026 Group I fixture at BMO Field in Toronto on Monday 22 June 2026. The African champions meet a Norwegian side led by Erling Haaland in one of the most eye-catching group-stage ties of the tournament. \nWhat is the FIFA World Cup 2026?\nThe 2026 FIFA World Cup is the 23rd edition of the tournament and the first to be co-hosted by three nations: the United States\, Canada and Mexico. Running from 11 June to 19 July 2026\, the competition features 48 teams\, 12 groups of four\, and 104 matches across 16 host cities. \nThe expanded format sends the top two from each group plus the eight best third-placed sides into a new Round of 32. For Senegal and Norway\, both viewed as dangerous outsiders\, this fixture could define who advances from Group I alongside France. \nWhen is Senegal vs Norway?\nSenegal vs Norway kicks off at 8pm ET (1am BST on Tuesday 23 June) on Monday 22 June 2026. It is the second matchday fixture in Group I. Listed under its Tuesday 23 June date for British audiences due to the late kick-off. \nWhere is Senegal vs Norway being played?\nThe match is held at BMO Field in Toronto\, Canada. Following expansion for the World Cup\, the stadium has a capacity of around 45\,000 and is one of only two Canadian venues staging 2026 matches\, alongside Vancouver’s BC Place. BMO Field is the home of MLS club Toronto FC. \nKey Contenders\nNorway are making their first World Cup appearance since 1998\, ending a long absence for a footballing nation transformed by the emergence of Erling Haaland. The Manchester City striker remains one of the most feared forwards in world football. Head coach Stale Solbakken can also call on Martin Odegaard\, Alexander Sorloth and Antonio Nusa\, giving Norway genuine attacking threat in every phase. \nSenegal\, AFCON champions in 2021\, are led by veteran coach Aliou Cisse’s successor and bring a squad rich in Premier League and European experience. Kalidou Koulibaly anchors the defence\, Idrissa Gueye and Pape Matar Sarr control midfield\, with Ismaila Sarr and Nicolas Jackson providing attacking threat. Senegal reached the Round of 16 in Qatar 2022 and arrive with ambitions of matching or bettering that run. \nHow to Watch\nUK viewers can watch live on BBC or ITV\, with streaming available on BBC iPlayer and ITVX.
