The article provides a recap of overnight football matches, focusing on France's win over Senegal and Erling Haaland's World Cup debut goal.

حجم الخط

At half-time of France’s 3-1 win over Senegal, anyone who opted to get up to watch probably wished they hadn’t. Calling it dull would be to do a disservice to dullness.

But then, no matter how much Fifa are trying to Americanise the sport, it’s always been a game of two halves and the second 45 minutes showed why many think Didier Deschamps’ side are heading back to the final.

The ever-changing kick-off times mean only 1½ games have really taken place overnight, with Norway and Iraq currently midway through their Group I clash – although that was still enough time for Erling Haaland to score on his World Cup debut.

Coming up, Argentina take on Algeria at 9am and Austria battle Jordan at 12pm, but until then here’s what happened while you were sleeping.

A predictable start

Death, taxes, Erling Haaland scoring goals.
