Seven goals, a bronze medal, and the match nobody wanted: England 6-4 France

A bronze-medal shootout neither side chased produced ten goals, a record for Bellingham, and a reminder that the World Cup's least-wanted fixture can still deliver its wildest afternoon.

Desk note: Monexus framed this as a record-book afternoon with structural caveats about what a third-place finish actually means. The wire headlines emphasised the scoreline; we leaned on Tuchel's own framing of a "brilliant first half, turbulent second" as the honest summary and kept the analytical weight on Bellingham's milestone rather than the medal itself.
