With the FIFA World Cup 2022 hosted by Qatar accelerating towards the knockouts, the teams are giving it their all to make it through to the next stage of the multinational tournament. It will be difficult for the lower-ranked teams to progress through to the quarter-finals given that the top-ranked teams are brimming with confidence. 

As things stand, on November 30, Wednesday, France and Tunisia competed against each other and the first half turned out be a challenging one for both teams, as neither Les Blues nor the Carthage Eagles scored a goal to their names in the first 45 minutes. 

The Carthage Eagles enjoyed a great start to the second 45 minutes as they bounced back and scored the lead on the back of a stupendous goal from their star player Wahbi Khazri in the 58th minute. Eventually, Tunisia looked on course to clinch the win and make it through to the knockouts of the world’s biggest sporting event, in a sudden turn of events. Eventually, Tunisia won the game with a scoreline of 1-0 and ended their campaign on a high.

Australia continue FIFA World Cup 2022 campaign

Australia and Denmark from the same group locked horns simultaneously on Wednesday and the teams fared well as they battled hard to clinch a win from the jaws of defeat. Although it looked like the match might end in a draw, the Socceroos kept dominating right from the start of the whistle. 

Denmark, on the other hand, tried their very best to get an early lead against a tight Australian defence, who did not let Denmark get the much-needed lead early on in the deciding game. Fans, on the other hand, were hoping that Socceroos might continue their run in the biggest sporting event. 

Australia dominated the second half as well and Danish Dynamite tried their level hard to get things under control. Eventually, the Socceroos star Mathew Leckie gave his team the lead in the 60th minute and kept Australia in the race for the Round of 16. Australia won the game with a scoreline of 1-0 and made it through to the knockouts as they flaunt greater points than Tunisia.
