Austria were very lucky! France's star striker Kylian Mbappe ignited in the 55th minute, made the red-white-red defense look old - and missed alone in front of goalkeeper Patrick Pentz.

55th minute: France's Rabiot wins the ball in his own half. He plays an awkward yet outstanding pass. The ball is quite steep, probably too steep for most strikers in the world. Not for Kylian Mbappe. The neo-Real striker ignites the mega turbo, first overruns Kevin Danso, puts the ball far in front of him, overtakes Maximilian Wöber and is suddenly all alone in front of Austria goalkeeper Patrick Pentz on the edge of the 16, wants to flick into the far corner - and misses. Unbelievable.

Huge luck for Austria! That would have been 0:2 and thus the (pre-)decision.
