France defeated Norway 4-1 in a match defined by relentless attacking tempo and clinical finishing. They registered nine shots on target to Norway’s four, converting four of those efforts for goals. Three goals came from Ousmane Dembélé, with Kylian Mbappé supplying two assists and Aurelien Tchouaméni a further one; Barcola provided the assist for the late goal by Desire Doue.

Thelo Aasgaard equalised for Norway, showing resilience in reply to early pressure. France then extended their lead with a rapid sequence of goals before the interval, moving to a 1-3 advantage. Norway finished with four shots on target to France’s nine, reflecting the disparity in attacking threat.

Mbappé’s two first-half assists underpinned France’s creative thrust, repeatedly unlocking the Norwegian backline. Dembélé capped the efficiency with a three-goal haul, while Barcola’s second-half assist set up the late finish for Desire Doue.

Defensively, France conceded only one goal as Norway managed to break through once. Norway committed nine fouls and earned one yellow card, indicating a combative but controlled approach throughout.

Set-piece activity was balanced (Norway 4 corners, France 5) and did not decisively swing the outcome. The data point to France’s superiority in hold-up play and interchanges, using width to stretch the backline and create clear shooting lanes for Dembélé and Mbappé, with Barcola and Doue linking for the late sequence.
