France struggled for a long time against Ukraine. In the end, the favorite team wins and celebrates their participation in the World Cup.
France have secured participation in the 2026 World Cup. After a 4-0 win against Ukraine, France lead their qualifying group by six points with one matchday remaining and can no longer be knocked out of top spot, which gives them the right to participate directly in the tournament in the US, Canada and Mexico.
“Equipe Tricolore” fought for a long time against the courage to defend Ukraine. In the second half, only a converted penalty from star striker Kylian Mbappé (55th minute) brought salvation. Bayern’s Michael Olise broke the visitors’ resistance with a goal that made the score 2-0 in the 76th minute, so that Mbappé with his second goal (83rd) and Hugo Ekitiké (88th) were able to clear things up in the end.
