France and Norway won their opening matches at the 2026 FIFA World Cup. Both teams can secure a spot in the knockout rounds on Monday, but the winner of Group I may come down to their final match against each other.
Group I Standings and Schedule
The current standings in Group I are led by Norway, followed by France. The schedule for the remaining matches is as follows: France vs. Iraq on June 22, Norway vs. Senegal on June 22, Norway vs. France on June 26, and Senegal vs. Iraq on June 26.
France can clinch a spot in the Round of 32 with a win over Iraq, provided Senegal does not beat Norway. Norway can also secure a spot with a win over Senegal, if Iraq does not beat France.
Tiebreaker Scenarios
In the event of a tie, the winner will be determined by a three-step process: the greatest number of points in group matches between tied teams, the superior goal difference in group matches between tied teams, and the greatest number of goals scored in all group matches between tied teams.
