Senegal will play its second match in the U17 World Cup against Poland (Group D) on Tuesday at 9 am GMT in Indonesia.

The national coach, Serigne Saliou Dia, may rotate his squad, giving key players a rest in preparation for upcoming challenges and involving substitutes.

«We know that in this competition, we have a reduced squad of 21 players», emphasized assistant coach Souleymane Diallo, as reported by Record.
