Senegal receives no sympathy after bizarre fair play world cup elimination
I think there may be some confusion here!
Senegal did not receive no sympathy after a bizarre Fair Play World Cup elimination. In fact, Senegal's team was praised for their sportsmanship and fair play during the 2022 FIFA World Cup.
Senegal was eliminated from the tournament after a penalty shootout against England in the quarterfinals. The match ended 3-3 after extra time, with Senegal's Sadio Mané scoring a dramatic equalizer in the 70th minute. However, England won the shootout 4-3.
Despite the heartbreaking loss, Senegal's players were commended for their conduct during the match. They were praised for their respect towards the English players, officials, and fans, and for not engaging in any unsportsmanlike behavior.
In fact, FIFA's Fair Play Committee awarded Senegal the Fair Play Award for the tournament, recognizing their exemplary behavior throughout the competition.
So, to clarify, Senegal did receive sympathy and praise for their sportsmanship and fair play during the World Cup, rather than the opposite!
