As the 2018 cup kicked off,no African country had shocked the world till this moment we waited for, as the Senegalese national team stunt Africa and the whole world being the first African country to beat a team in the Russia 2018 on going World Cup.
Senegal went ahead as half time approached after Everton midfielder Idrissa Gana Gueye's shot was deflected into the net by a helpless Thiago Cionek for what is the 2018 World Cup's fourth own goal.
Aliou Cisse's side doubled their lead when two former Premier League players were involved in a catastrophic mix-up, as Grzegorz Krychowiak, who spent last season on loan at West Brom, underhit a backpass towards former Arsenal goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny, and M'Baye Niang stole in to take advantage.
Poland pulled a goal back with five minutes to go when Krychowiak headed in from a free-kick but an equaliser eluded them.
With an own goal from the Polish side and a second goal at 72min giving the Senegalese a boost win over the Polish side, though the match ended in a 2-1win in favour of the Senegalese being the first African country to get a win in Russia.
