In a tightly contested match, France secured a spot in the quarterfinals by defeating Belgium 1-0 in Düsseldorf. The decisive goal came from a strike by Kolo Muani in the 84th minute, with his shot deflecting off Vertonghen, leaving Belgium disappointed despite a valiant effort.

Throughout the game, France displayed dominance and control, with the team enjoying more possession and creating several scoring opportunities. However, their struggles in front of goal were evident as they managed to hit the target only once out of eighteen attempts.

The French lineup featured the likes of Koundé, Upamecano, Saliba, Kanté, Tchouaméni, Rabiot, Griezmann, Thuram, and Mbappé, led by coach Didier Deschamps. On the other side, Belgium, managed by Domenico Tedesco, fielded a strong team including Casteels, Faes, Theate, Castagne, Onana, De Bruyne, Carrasco, Openda, Lukaku, and Doku.
