France march on after bad-tempered Paraguay clash

In a tense and physically demanding match under extreme heat, France advanced to the World Cup quarter-finals with a 1-0 victory over Paraguay. The decisive moment came in the 70th minute when Kylian Mbappé converted a penalty after a VAR review confirmed a foul on Desire Doue. Despite dominating possession and creating several scoring opportunities throughout the game, France faced顽强 resistance from Paraguay's defensive line, which often resorted to cynical tactics. Mbappé's goal not only secured progression but also brought him level with Lionel Messi in the Golden Boot race. France now faces Morocco in the next round, following Morocco's earlier win against Canada.
