World Cup Qualifying Shocker: France Stumble While Kosovo Strikes Again Against Sweden
France suffered a slight setback in their World Cup qualification campaign as the two-time champions and 2022 runners-up were held to a 2-2 draw by Iceland.
Victor Palsson put Iceland ahead in the 39th minute in Reykjavik when he turned home after France failed to deal with a free-kick into the box.
Christopher Nkunku levelled matters in the 63rd minute when he cut in from the left and fired an unerring low shot into the bottom-right corner.
Jean-Philippe Mateta then completed the turnaround five minutes later, converting from Maghnes Akliouche’s cross to net his first senior international goal at the age of 28.
