The brief

France secured a win against Paraguay in a match described by The New York Times as the 'disgrace' of Philadelphia. Coverage from The Guardian and The Washington Post emphasizes that France's offense was stifled and the victory was too close for comfort.

Fox News reported a post-match incident where the Paraguay goalkeeper tossed a ball at Mbappé, while Yahoo Sports cited Ittrich's view that the referee was out of his depth. Future attention remains on Mbappé's pursuit of the Golden Boot and France's preparation for further matches, which The New York Times characterizes as 'war'.
