00:00Sarra is back to help the defence and outwit Papayo Saka,

00:05much to the delight of the handful of Senegalese fans that have made the journey.

00:10Ezra has won it back, now it's Gallagher, it's still Conor Gallagher, Gordon, still,

00:15Harry Kane is there!

00:20Wherever, whenever, Harry Kane just loves playing for England,

00:25and he loves scoring goals for England.

00:30Quick, sharp, and on hand, England make the breakthrough inside seven minutes.

00:39Well, it's really good play from Ezra,

00:41but Harry Kane, we've seen him drop deep so many times to set up play,

00:45but one of the things that will never go away from his game

00:48is the fact that he stays in between the posts, and he picks goals like this up.

00:53Same the other night, just right on the edge of being offside.

00:59The arms go up.

01:03The save's not the best, but he won't mind, it's just on a plate for him.

01:06It's a good ball by Gallagher that finds Saka.

01:07Walker done the overlap on this near side with a fizzing cross,

01:10and out of the Gordon somehow, beaten to it.

01:13Kane claiming that that should be a corner, the officials are undecided.

01:15This is a brilliant ball in from Walker, he's got space, he takes his time, just look, far post.

01:24Gordon gets ahead of his mark at Diata, which is the hard thing to do to get in front,

01:31but it just looks like it comes off Gordon's heel.

01:33Yeah.

01:46I do have Jason Manford as the co-commentator.

01:53Here is N'Jai.

01:55On to Garner.

01:57And Drissi Garner-Gay is prevented by Dean Henderson from equalising for Senegal.

02:04That's a good save, stretching, he gets his shot away through legs, sees it late.

02:11Now he's on the search again, keeps it alive, and Ismail Assara's arriving.

02:16And he's beaten Karl Walker to it, and Senegal are level.

02:23The first team to bridge Thomas Tuchel's England are Senegal.

02:27And after 40 minutes of this match at the city ground, I don't think England can have too many complaints.

02:34They have been warned.

02:48Oh, there goes Diara, he's got support too, it's Diara, who takes the ring.

02:53Senegal in control.

02:58And England have got a touch green around the girls.

03:06Well, it's a stock ball.

03:08Gibbs-White and Lewis Skelly between them have to sort that out, it's one ball over the top.

03:16It's not a brilliant ball, it's just lifted into the channel.

03:19And Diara just got, look at that, just runs into the channel.

03:24Lewis Skelly's been dragged wide.

03:27If that's the case, then your midfield player's got to help him out, and neither of them get anywhere near Diara.

03:34It's a good finish.

03:35As in, he looks like he's going to square it.

03:38Henderson comes out and they hold through the legs one.

03:42And really, really good.

03:44Here's Ezra.

03:45And that'll be picked to Morgan Gibbs-White!

03:47That's a really good sign for him.

03:49And what a ending.

03:50Straight out the goalkeeper, but he had to be out.

03:53It's a tough one from Wesley.

03:54Let's have a claim as well, he chooses Gibbs-White to put his laces through him.

04:00Goal-White, looking for Saka.

04:15He did well.

04:18And just Bryce, Ezra.

04:21Gibbs-White, back to Saka!

04:25Oh, he's got in the start.

04:28It's a lovely only move, that's better.

04:31Well, he was an ignorant number seven since he's come out, he's been involved in everything.

04:36This is a really good save from Mendy.

04:38Saka just bends it in that corner, he's at full stretch, and it just goes past the post.

04:46Fingertips.

04:48Equalising goal with seven minutes to go.

04:51Cold wall, Chalabel.

04:53Both out from the back.

04:57There's a lurking on the edge of the air as the cross comes in from Madiweko.

05:00There's Palligan there!

05:08Jerry Palligan there to rescue England again.

05:11They're going off the bench, and an equaliser at just the right time.

05:16They've missed the ball in inside the city ground.

05:19A set piece, just look at him, he just wanders into the six-yard box,

05:22but he doesn't get the initial header.

05:25There's a good ball into a dangerous area, and then it's just bits and pieces.

05:30Takes a little touch, they're appealing for a handball, I think, from Bannigan.

05:34If you look back, it hits him anywhere near the hand.

05:39You see from this, off his thigh, and he's not going to miss from there.

05:46Put the wall's action as a deliberate handball, which Stephanie, for a part,

05:51is now going to have to decide, because essentially the VAR has decided

05:55that that is a subjective decision, and she needs to have a look at it.

06:04So is that a deliberate handball by Levi Colwell? That's the question.

06:09That's completely not a deliberate handball.

06:12The referee has overturned the decision, it's no goal.

06:15England are denying an equaliser, because of a handball given against Levi Colwell

06:22in the build-up to Bellingham's finish.

06:24The judges get dispossessed here.

06:27Now England have brought real trouble.

06:29Romain Kamara is steaming forward.

06:31He's got Njai over on the far side, and joining is Sabali, and England have beaten...

06:38The first good side to beat England are Senegal.

06:47And they have done it at Nottingham Forest City ground.

06:50Sabali with the pinching goal.

06:55He got 15 this season for Mets, as they got promoted to the top line.

07:01But that goal brings the world to the Senegalese supporters.

07:05A night of triumph for them. For England, a very different feeling.

07:11We eat breakfast together every single morning, so it's not like a tough question.

07:14I've experienced that, and you've got it next.

07:18That was my answer, all three.

07:21Val, can we do it?

07:22He's the fastest, me and you.

07:28Hi guys, I'm Anthony Gordon.

07:30And I'm Curtis Jones.

07:31And this is Room Mets.

07:32And this is Room Mets.
