GOAL - Norway 1-4 Francepublished at 90+4 mins
Desire Doue
There hadn't been much from France in the second half, but they get a fourth goal just before the end. It comes from Paris St-Germain as Bradley Barcola's cross from the left is met by a fine, cushioned, guided header from Desire Doue, with the ball going inside the post.

A blunder from Norway to put out the reserves. Their momentum and confidence shattered.

Senegal are up to fifth in the best third-place side table. They've now got the best record from all of the sides on three points.
A long way to go but they've put themselves in a fantastic position.

Former Scotland winger at Boston StadiumWe've seen all three French games so far. The first one, quite poor first half and brilliant second half. The second, again poor first half, superb second half. This time, superb first half and average second half. I don't know if it's by design or not? Have they got an entire 90 minutes in them?

This is a massive gulf in experience between these two sides.

Iliman Ndiaye (82 mins)
Another banger!
Iliman Ndiaye man has all the space he would ever want and he smashes it into the near top corner from about 20 yards.
It's the first time an African side has scored five times at the World Cup.

I do hope nobody watched the first half of the Senegal match, saw that goals were raining in in the France game and switched at half time. Anyone who did that has seen just one of 8 goals!

Much better from Senegal this. The extra man is obviously coming into play but Senegal are showing a lot more in attack and they've put themselves in a stronger position for qualification.

The penalty miss and that Bobb chance have been costly. This should be 3-3.

Pat Nevin
Former Scotland winger at Boston StadiumThe French have fallen so far back for the vast majority of this second half. There's about 40 or 50 yards between Mbappe and any other player. It's very strange. It's as if to say, "We've won the game, let's kill it as much as we can'.

French sub Bradley Barcola is way too fast for the Norway defence down France's left wing. From a tight angle, he tries to squeeze the ball past Egil Selvik at the near post, but it is blocked behind for a corner, but that comes to nothing.

Senegal must wait to confirm their place in the last 32 as Iraq bow out
ByAdwaidh Rajan
BBC Sport journalist
Senegal boosted their chances of reaching the knockout stage of the World Cup with a 5-0 victory against 10-man Iraq.
The Lions of Teranga finished third in Group I with three points to climb to fifth among third-placed teams, but they will still need results elsewhere to go their way to secure a place in the last 32.
Senegal played a near-perfect game in Toronto as they looked to bounce back from defeats by France and Norway, and the result pushed Scotland down to ninth in the table of third-placed sides - with eight to advance to the next round.
That did not mean Scotland's hopes were absolutely at an end, as later games could still influence their standing, but they were rapidly fading.
Fast-starting Senegal opened the scoring after only four minutes. Abdoulaye Seck's header from a corner took a decisive deflection off Sunderland midfielder Habib Diarra on its way past Iraq goalkeeper Ahmed Basil.
Iraq's problems were compounded nine minutes later when referee Anthony Taylor sent off defender Rebin Sulaka for pulling down Sadio Mane at the edge of the penalty area - deeming it denial of a goalscoring opportunity after a video assistant referee review.
Mane tested Basil from the resulting free-kick, but Pape Thiaw's side, who needed goals to improve their goal difference and thereby their chances of progressing to the next stage, failed to register another shot on target in the first half.
But they capitalised on former Manchester United midfielder Zidane Iqbal giving away possession at the edge of the box as Lamine Camara cut the ball back for Ismaila Sarr to apply a simple finish to make it 2-0 in the 56th minute.
Their lead was extended three minutes later as Pape Gueye curled a left-foot strike into the top corner - his first involvement after coming on moments earlier.
Villarreal defensive midfielder Gueye added his second goal with another thunderous effort in the 71st minute before fellow substitute Iliman Ndiaye sealed the 5-0 win, that they would hope will be enough to send them through to the knockout stage.
Senegal have reached the knockout stages in two of their past three World Cup appearances
