France vs Iraq H2H Stats, Lineups and Live Stream

Preview

France National Football Team square off with Iraq National Football Team in the Group I of the World Cup action on June 22. Play was suspended with the score at 1-0

Kylian Mbappe scored the only goal of the game on the 14th minute of the match, tipping the balance in France's favor.

With victories over Senegal and Northern Ireland, France National Football Team is on a roll, as they seek to carry their form forward with a win against Iraq. However, their defensive frailties have been apparent as they have allowed goals in six consecutive matches.

Iraq, unlike their opponents, are in a poor form, preparing for the match after two consecutive losses against Norway and Venezuela, unable to secure a win in their last three games. Their backline remains a concern, conceding goals in their last three matches in a row.

This FIFA World Cup encounter highlights the attacking players who have stood out for France National Football Team and Iraq National Football Team throughout the campaign, even in challenging moments. France’s offensive unit, under Didier Deschamps’s guidance, has leaned on Kylian Mbappe, their main scorer, and Michael Olise, as they continue to drive the team’s attacking efforts forward. Mbappe leads France’s scoring charts in FIFA World Cup this season with two goals, as Olise continues to lead their creative efforts in the tournament with two assists. Adding further support are Bradley Barcola and Adrien Rabiot, who have combined to deliver key goals and assists for the team.

Meanwhile, Iraq’s attacking options, under Graham Arnold’s management, have been bolstered by Aymen Hussein, the team’s top scorer, and Marko Farji, both of whom have contributed crucial goals and assists. Hussein has emerged as Iraq’s leading scorer in FIFA World Cup this season, netting one goal, with Al Ammari leading their creative tally in the league with one assist.
