France and Senegal remain locked at 0-0 in an intense World Cup clash at New Jersey Stadium. Featuring stars like Kylian Mbappe, Ousmane Dembele, and Michael Olise, France started brightly but found it difficult to break down Senegalโs disciplined defense.
The match carries added significance for the French, who are eager to avoid a repeat of their shocking 1-0 defeat to Senegal in the opening game of the 2002 World Cup, a loss that ultimately led to their early elimination. France, finalists in four of the last seven World Cups and two-time champions, are aiming to begin another strong campaign, but Senegal have proven to be a tough opponent so far.
