The result gave the French side a crucial three points to start their tournament campaign, overcoming a resilient South African team that fought until the final whistle. France opened the scoring midway through the first half with a well-worked team move finished by their captain. South Africa equalized just before halftime against the run of play, capitalizing on a defensive error. The decisive moment came in the 70th minute when a French winger cut inside and fired a low shot into the corner, sealing the 2-1 win. The match was a physical affair with several yellow cards, but no major controversies. France's midfield control was the key focus point, while South Africa's goalkeeper made a series of impressive saves to keep the scoreline respectable. This opening win put France in a strong early position in their group table.
