France 2 vs Australia 1

France began the game highly favored to win. They initially took the lead from a penalty kick which was awarded after a foul call made from video review. The play had been initially waved off by the center official.

Australia evened the score a few moments later when a French defender handled the ball in the penalty area resulting in a penalty kick.

The match score remained 1-1 until the 83rd minute. France scored on a goal which required goal line technology to verify. The shot had been deflected resulting in an almost vertical bounce down from the goal’s crossbar.

The match concluded with 5 minutes of added time after one final flop by a French player.
