Tunisia lost 1–0 to France, but combined with Australia’s victory over Denmark, kept them out of the World Cup play-offs.

The Blues lined up with many substitutions in the match. Didier Deschamps has decided to give his big stars a rest due to the continuation of the event after the qualification decision has been made.

Thus, Bape, Griezmann, Giroud and goalkeeper Hugo Joris remained on the bench. The hosts usually got the better of the field and scored through Goodry in the 8th minute, but this was ruled out due to offside.

Tunisia had the initiative of the movements and the French struggled a little in the final effort. In the 25th minute, Deschamps’ team scored their first goal of the match when Coman’s shot went wide.

Ten minutes later, Mandada saved a long-range shot from Kazri for a corner.

At the 52nd minute, Tunisia threatened to kick Laidouni. Characteristically, the hosts scored a goal in the 56th minute thanks to Kazri.

The phases were few, as the Tunisian players were disappointed after Australia’s goal. In the 85th minute, Rabiot took a shot, but the ball went wide.

In the 89th minute, Mbappe made an amazing individual try, went past two players, but his attempt was blocked. In stoppage time, Griezmann scored a goal, but his goal was not counted.
