Early days obviously but Sénégal’s Moussa Wague (1998), is the best right back I’ve seen so far at the World Cup. #SEN pic.twitter.com/dfcRFPX9da

Moussa Wague restores the lead for #Senegal against #Japan! Great passes by Mané and Sabaly to create the chance, and an emphatic finish at the back post. 2-1 now. #JPNSEN #LionsOfTeranga #SEN pic.twitter.com/vxmmozd2bG
