Following the decision to award a penalty to Belgium late in the match against Senegal, Senegalese players avoided a collective withdrawal that could have led to their loss and the administrative annulment of the match. This is in accordance with the new rules approved by FIFA and IFAB, which prohibit players from leaving the field to protest refereeing decisions. This behavior traces back to the final of the Africa Cup of Nations in Rabat, where Senegalese players left the pitch en masse, resulting in a decision to deduct points from their match. The team has since learned from that experience and now believes that not withdrawing is the safest way to preserve its image and minimize risks.
