El Hadji Diouf expects a tough match for Senegal against Norway at the World Cup

The former Senegal international remains confident, however, in Senegal’s ability to compete.

Senegal will face Norway on 23 June in their second group stage match of the World Cup, which will held in the United States, Canada and Mexico. When asked by TV 2 about the match, El Hadji Diouf gave his analysis. For the former Lion of Teranga, there is no doubt that Norway are a formidable opponent.

They are a very good team, with good players. It will be difficult, but Senegal also have a good team at the moment. It will be a crucial match for us, an opportunity to test ourselves against a great team like Norway. We’re not playing against Haaland, but against a whole team. When you look at their squad, even in the Champions League with clubs like Bodø/Glimt, several players are performing at a very high level.
