Didier Deschamps' men were hugely unconvincing during the group stage, despite managing to top their group ahead of Denmark.
Argentina were even worse during the group stages. Drawing their opener with Iceland and hammered 3-0 in their next game against Croatia, they needed a late winner from Marcos Rojo in their final game with Nigeria to scrape through to the knockout stages.
Rojo went from hero to zero in the early stages against Les Bleus, embarrassed by Kylian Mbappe he conceded a penalty which was tucked away by Antoine Griezmann.

Both Griezmann and Pogba stood over the resulting free-kick, before the Manchester United midfielder eventually stepped up to take it, sending a powerful shot comfortably over the Argentina goal.

France kept their lead until shortly before half-time when Angel Di Maria's long range effort levelled things for Argentina.
