France have won all three of their group-stage matches at a World Cup for the first time since 1998. Les Bleus brushed Norway aside in a 4-1 demolition, powered by an Ousmane Dembélé hat-trick and a bullet header from Désiré Doué.

Elsewhere, Senegal’s 5-0 thrashing of Iraq keeps them alive, though they face a nervous wait for other results to see if they sneak through as one of the eight best third-placed teams.

In Group H, Cape Verde pulled off a monumental shock by holding Saudi Arabia to a 0-0 draw—a result that secures them second place and a direct ticket to the round of 32. It is a stunning achievement for the island nation making its World Cup debut. Meanwhile, Uruguay have been sent packing after a narrow 1-0 defeat to Spain.
