The world champion saw the third day of matches in the World Cup in Qatar opened with one of the biggest sensations in the form of Argentina’s loss to Saudi Arabia, after which Denmark, who is at home, lost points in a draw against Tunisia and it was already possible to imagine that we are on our way to another earthquake when Australia took the lead at Al Janoub Stadium In the ninth minute, but France came to their senses, became 1:4 and celebrated an almost perfect opening for them in Qatar.
France was a huge disappointment in the European Championship held in the summer of last year, when it only beat Germany in the group stage and fortunately advanced to the round of 16 despite drawing with Portugal and Hungary, but its path was stopped in the last 16 stage by Switzerland at the end of a penalty shootout in which Mbappe missed. Today, excluding the difficult opening for the tricolor, it already seemed to be completely different.

France entered the market when in the ninth minute the Australian Craig Goodwin subdued Hugo Lloris, after Lucas Hernandez made a mistake in guarding, he also lost his balance, was injured in the same move and was replaced by his younger brother Theo, but this was the move that woke up the French, took them out of shock and also helped them because Hernandez The youngster equalized for Adrien Rabiot in the 27th minute, five minutes passed and Rabiot also added to his tally an assist to Olivier Giroud and before half time Kylian Mbappe should have scored, but missed by a few meters.
Australia almost equalized in extra time when Irwin hit Lloris’ crossbar, but at the break the teams were down 1:2 and returned to the second half in a one-sided situation. The stadium was on fire when Mbappe made it 1:3 in the 68th minute. Three minutes passed and Mbappe also scored for the 36-year-old Giroud who made history – in addition to the pair he completed, he equaled Thierry Henry as France’s greatest scorer of all time with 51 goals. At the end 1:4 to France, who goes to the top of the house.
