Jordan Henderson, Harry Kane and Bukayo Saka got the goals to secure England's place in the quarter-finals, where they will meet 2018 champions France.
England cruised past Senegal 3-0 in their first World Cup knockout match, with a mouth-watering clash against holders France awaiting them in the last eight.
Two quick-fire goals - the first from Jordan Henderson, the second from Harry Kane - put Gareth Southgate's side in control going into the half-time break, after what had been a nervy start at the Al Bayt Stadium in Qatar. Senegal, the African Cup of Nations champions, had chances to open the scoring and forced a fine save from goalkeeper Jordan Pickford before his namesake Henderson struck in the 38th minute.
But the second half was far more comfortable for the Three Lions, and Arsenal's young star Bukayo Saka scored his third goal of the tournament in the 57th minute to rubber-stamp the victory. Kane's goal in first-half added time means he has now scored 11 goals at major tournaments, seven in the World Cup and four in the Euros, overtaking Gary Lineker as England's all-time top scorer in major tournaments.helped the 2018 winners see off Poland in the earlier Sunday game.
