Well played France. Deserved the win. For Australia, it had 18 minutes of being able to taste and imagine a victory over the reigning champs, and it felt pretty good. Normally Australia is forced to come from behind but this time we scored first, catching the French off guard.
France now has a good goal difference and Australia an even bigger mountain to climb.
France will go through and Australia wont unless a miracle happens and they win the next two games. Not very likely.
Lets hope Japan manages to do better and beat Germany.

Well played Les Bleus. All the best to the Socceroos in the challenges ahead.

Some Socceroo fans attacked French ones. Bad behaviour.
