Incredible scenario for the Blues!

Three days after their sad draw against Israel (0-0), Sunday, the Blues raised their heads. Traveling to San Siro on Sunday, for the last day of the group stage, the French team dominated Italy in fine fashion (1-3), at the same time snatching first place in the group stage. his group and with it the prospect of a quarter-final within his reach.

But it's another first place that the Blues could secure by Wednesday. Second in the Fifa rankings since its World Cup final in Qatar, the French team could indeed regain first place on the night of Tuesday and Wednesday. Argentina must indeed face Peru and if the Albiceleste do not win, the Blues will inherit first place.

The threat from Spain becomes clearer

The victory won in Italy, however, barely compensates for the draw conceded against Israel since the Blues even dropped 0.06 points. But by losing to Paraguay in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers, Argentina lost very big, no less than 21.14 points. Before their last match against Peru, the Albiceleste are only two points ahead of France and will lose their first place if they do not dominate Rojiblanca, dunce of these qualifiers and 42^e nation in the FIFA rankings.

Note that Spain is showing itself to be more and more threatening. Winner of Denmark on Thursday, La Roja continued at home against Switzerland and got a little closer to France since they are only 6 points behind the Blues.
