France edged previous England to safe a spot within the semifinal of the FIFA World Cup with a 2-1 win on the AL Bayt Stadium on Sunday.
Harry Kane, who had earlier scored from the spot, blazed a penalty large minutes away from full-time, to overlook an opportunity to stage the rating at 2-2.
France opened the scoring within the first half, by a shocking long-distance strike from Aurelien Tchouameni.
England then levelled issues up after Bukayo Saka was fouled by Tchouaméni within the field and Kane smashed it in from the spot.
The Les Bleus clinched the deciding objective from an Antoine Griezmann cross from the left flank was nudged in, through a deflection from Harry Maguire, by Olivier Giroud.
