Match overview
Senegal secured an historic World Cup quarter-final berth by coming from behind against Sweden. After Larsson gave Sweden an early lead, Camara replied before the break and then sent the African debutants through with a golden goal winner in extra time.
Trivia
Henri Camara’s extra-time goal instantly became legendary, as Senegal joined Cameroon as the only African sides to reach the World Cup’s last eight in their debut tournament. Sweden exited after an enterprising group stage.
