The celebrations of the French were overshadowed by a great tragedy.

A 17-year-old girl died after falling from a truck during celebrations following France's victory over Morocco in the quarterfinals of the World Cup. The incident occurred in northern France, where she was at the back of a truck without a trailer when she fell and was struck by the vehicle, killing her immediately. Six minors were nearby, and one was taken to the hospital in Maubeuge due to shock. The truck driver was detained by police. Meanwhile, in London, tensions erupted after Morocco's elimination from the tournament, leading to clashes between fans and police near Edgware Road. At least one officer was injured, and several people were arrested as fans threw bottles and used flares. Police had initially intervened because a group blocked traffic but the situation escalated when objects were thrown, prompting reinforcements.
