Host France roar into World Cup quarters, upset Brazil in extra time

Formiga, 41, was started in the midfield for Brazil, joining Thaisa and Marta. France's coach Corinne Diacre made only one change to her favourite starting line-up as Viviane Asseyi move in while Gaetane Thiney was benched.

France had the ball in the net after 23 minutes into the game but was disallowed after VAR review, with Valerie Gauvin adjudged to have headed the ball out of Barbara's hands.

Both sides haven't created many chances in the first half until the dying minutes when an angled drive from Brazil's Cristiane was denied before unmarked right-back Amel Majri of France saw her attempt blast over the bar.

It just took the hosts 7 minutes after the interval to break the deadlock. Kadidiatou Diani burst down the right and pulled back for Gauvin to slide in.
