Goals from Aurelien Tchouamen and Olivier Giroud send the world champions France to face Morocco in the semi-finals; Harry Kane equalized but shot over the bar from 12 yards with a late penalty, missing the chance to make it 2-2; England was eliminated from the World Cup.
The England captain had already converted from 12 yards earlier in the game to level after Aurelien Tchouameni’s thunderbolt had put France ahead and he was given a golden opportunity to equalise for a second time after Olivier Giroud’s header when Theo Hernandez recklessly barged into Mason Mount.
