After a surprise goal from Azerbaijan inside five minutes, France have taken a 2-1 lead in their final match of World Cup qualifying.
Jean-Philippe Mateta headed in the equaliser off of a lofted cross from Malo Gusto.

The Crystal Palace forward has now scored two goals in two starts for the France national team.
France eventually took the lead as Gusto got another assist, setting up a tap-in for Maghnes Akliouche; his first-ever goal for Les Bleus.
It seems normality has resumed for Didier Deschamps' already-qualified side.
