Captain Wendie Renard headed a late winner as France beat Brazil in a thrilling game in Brisbane at the 2023 Fifa Women's World Cup.
Eugenie le Sommer put the French ahead after 17 minutes, before Debinha pulled Brazil level in the second half.
There was end to end action as two of the pre-tournament favourites delivered a game which lived up to expectations.
But it was Renard - who had been an injury doubt - who headed in the decisive goal with seven minutes to go.
"She is the leader of the team," France manager Herve Renard said of his captain. "If she was not able to play today then it wouldn't be the same. We were lucky to have her today."
Brazil would have qualified for the last 16 with victory but instead must wait until the final matchday to try to book a knockout spot.
Pia Sundhage's side meet Jamaica in their final group match, while France take on Panama. Both games will be played on 2 August, kicking off at 11.00 BST.

Australia kept their Women's World Cup dream alive as they advanced to the last-16 stage by thrashing Canada.
Hayley Raso scored twice, Mary Fowler was also on target and Steph Catley netted a late penalty as the co-hosts impressed in a game they had to win to avoid elimination.
The Matildas finished top of Group B - and did so without Sam Kerr, an unused sub despite declaring herself fit.
Canada suffered their first Women's World Cup group-stage exit since 2011.
Nigeria's draw with the Republic of Ireland means Australia will go forward to face the runners-up in Group D - who could still be England - at Stadium Australia in Sydney on 7 August.

British cinemas have had their biggest week in over a decade with families flocking to see blockbusters Barbie and Oppenheimer.
The UK's largest cinema chain, Odeon, says it sold two million tickets for the highly-anticipated films in just ten days - double what the company had predicted it would sell in a week.
Meanwhile Vue UK and Ireland said the two movies smashed its previous highest admissions week 11 years ago - when viewers flocked to watch the James Bond film Skyfall - by 20 per cent.
With the two hit films opening on the same day last week, many fans opted to watch them back to back - boosting ticket sales.
The hype around what became known as 'Barbenheimer' meant the films - which are vastly different - were not in competition but rather helped one another to sell more tickets.
