Show notes
- France beat Senegal three-one, but only after Mbappe and Olise shifted the game in the second half.

- Messi scored all three Argentina goals against Algeria, moving level with Miroslav Klose on sixteen World Cup goals.
- Austria beat Jordan three-one, though Jordan's World Cup debut was far bolder than the scoreline suggests.
