Analysis
Despite major injuries to major stars, France has managed to dominate their opponents and emerge as the first to qualify for the Round of 16 in the tournament. Their defenders have been solid with Ibrahim Konate, Dayot Upamecano and Rafael Varane being the backbone of the team. The young midfield led by Aurelien Tchoumeni has been on top of its game with forward Kylian Mbappe tormenting defenders with pace, ferocity and precision.
Whereas Tunisia has been one of the most disappointing teams in the tournament so far. The Eagles of Carthage have been solid defensively conceding one goal and only 18 crosses in their first two games. But their midfield and the front line have been underwhelming with their inability to create and convert chances.
