Russia 2018 World Cup: France Knocks Out Peru, Qualifies For Round of 16
France have qualified for the knock-out stage after winning 1-0 over Peru in their second match of the World Cup.
The South American team grip on the game failed to pay off with goals that led to their obvious elimination after France found the winning goal through Kylian Mbappe who becomes his country's youngest player ever to score at the tournament.
In the 35th minutes, the 19-year-old Frenchman with ease kicked ball into the post after a shot from his teammate Oliver Giroud was deflected to his reach in the box.
Peru's efforts to get an equalizer proved futile despite coming very close netting a leveller through Paolo Guererro which was brilliantly saved and another effort from Luis Avindcula in 67th minutes caught the cross bar.
France lead their group with six points and Denmark followed in second place with four point after 1-1 draw with Australia.
France will face in the next match Denmark and Australia will take on already eliminated side Peru on Tuesday June 26.
