World Cup: They’re quick, strong, skillful – Paul Merson warns England against Senegal

Arsenal legend, Paul Merson has warned England against underestimating Senegal in their round of sixteen clash in the 2022 World Cup.
England will face the Teranga Lions of Senegal in the knockout stages of the FIFA World Cup in Qatar.
Senegal is the champion of Africa after lifting the Africa Cup of Nations earlier this year. They also finished second in World Cup Group A behind The Netherlands.
Merson said he would have preferred to come against The Netherlands instead of playing Senegal.
The former Premier League and England star pointed out that the West African side are strong, fast and skillful and may be too much for the Three Lions to handle on Sunday.
“I think this is a hard game,” he told Daily Mail.
“I would have rather played against Holland.
“Senegal will be physical and strong but they’re also quick. They’ve got skill. Trust me, don’t underestimate them.”
