France Match Context
This page keeps the France view separate from the canonical archive result so supporters can find team-specific links, players, and host-city context without changing the official match record.
Senegal context remains visible because the match page should be useful to both sets of fans, but the framing here is intentionally centered on France.
For the primary scoreline, status, date, and archive reference record, use the canonical match result linked from this page.
