🧠 Match Summary

vs

France dominated Group I's final matchday in Boston, dismantling Norway 4-1 to advance in commanding fashion. Ousmane Dembélé was the undeniable architect of the victory, scoring three times before the half-hour mark — opening on 7 minutes, equalizing Norway's brief leveler, and then restoring the two-goal cushion at 32'. Thelo Aasgaard had briefly offered Norway hope with a neat finish on 21', but France's quality proved overwhelming throughout.

Les Bleus controlled proceedings with 57% possession and unleashed 18 shots — nine on target — to Norway's ten. Désiré Doué added a composed fourth in stoppage time to put the gloss on a polished display. Referee Michael Oliver managed a competitive but largely straightforward afternoon, as France sent a clear statement of intent to the rest of the tournament.
