The outstanding France continues its path towards a third consecutive World Cup final when it faces Paraguay in the round of 16 at the Lincoln Financial Field stadium in Philadelphia City, USA.
Many had projected Germany to be France’s next opponents, but Julian Nagelsmann’s slow and cumbersome team were instead stunned by Gustavo Alfaro’s Paraguay.
The South Americans defended doggedly to defy a German crossing barrage, eventually taking the four-time winners to penalties. A chaotic shootout ensued, with Paraguay spurning two efforts to triumph before José Canale kept his cool and sealed a remarkable victory.
France continues to purr in North America. After scoring 10 times in the group, it tore past Sweden in the round of 32. This is an outstanding team, undoubtedly capable of conquering the soccer world, and should glory be claimed in New Jersey later this month, we may be talking about an all-time great international side.
