You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 44.200.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪Blablubbs‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 16:45, 10 February 2025.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

===France vs Australia===
The two teams had met in four previous matches, most recently in a 2013 friendly, a 6–0 France victory.<ref name=Kit7>((cite web|url=https://resources.fifa.com/image/upload/2018-fifa-world-cup-russiatm-statistical-kit.pdf?cloudid=fjqkfby8aur1lxnvnxdi |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180508111620/http://resources.fifa.com/image/upload/2018-fifa-world-cup-russiatm-statistical-kit.pdf?cloudid=fjqkfby8aur1lxnvnxdi |url-status=dead |archive-date=8 May 2018 |title=2018 FIFA World Cup – Statistical Kit|website=FIFA.com |publisher=Fédération Internationale de Football Association|page=7))</ref>

After a disjointed first half, the game sparked into life shortly after the interval as referee [[Andrés Cunha]] initially disallowed a French penalty, but after a call from the [[Video assistant referee|VAR]], changed his decision and awarded the penalty to France,  deciding that [[Josh Risdon]] had clipped [[Antoine Griezmann]] just inside the area. Griezmann would convert the penalty, which was the first World Cup penalty awarded by VAR. The opener was soon cancelled out just four minutes later by another penalty, Australian midfielder and captain, [[Mile Jedinak]], slotting home after [[Samuel Umtiti]] handled the ball in the box,<ref name="Goal France v Australia">((cite web |last=Atkinson |first=Guy |title=Historic Griezmann goal and Pogba secure slender win |url=http://www.goal.com/en-us/match/france-v-australia/report/3g144vnu0gzm5blvn62rw2b55 |website=Goal.com |date=16 June 2018))</ref> and they looked on course to hold one of the pre-tournament favourites until [[Paul Pogba]]'s lobbed effort confirmed by goal line technology deflected off Australia full-back [[Aziz Behich]] and the crossbar to fall inches over the goal-line.<ref name="Goal France v Australia"/><ref name="BBC France v Australia">((cite web |last=Sutcliffe |first=Steve |title=France 2 Australia 1 |url=https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/44422186 |work=BBC Sport |date=16 June 2018))</ref>

The two penalties were scored in the game between France and Australia were only four minutes, seven seconds apart - the shortest period of time between two penalties being scored by different sides in a World Cup match. Both countries also featured their youngest ever World Cup players in [[Daniel Arzani]] at 19 years and 163 days and [[Kylian Mbappé]] at 19 years and 178 days.<ref name="Goal France v Australia"/><ref>((cite web |title=Pogba strike sees France edge Australia |url=https://www.fifa.com/worldcup/news/review-france--australia-2958142 |website=FIFA.com |publisher=Fédération Internationale de Football Association |date=16 June 2018))</ref>

[[Yoshimar Yotún]] lashed the ball into [[Kasper Schmeichel]]'s midriff from 25 yards as Peru began the game and [[Edison Flores]] lifted a shot over the crossbar from just outside the box. [[André Carrillo]] surged towards the Denmark box in the 13th minute and cut inside to curl a low drive towards the bottom-left corner, only for Schmeichel to pull off a diving save. Denmark began to dominate possession but it was not until the 27th minute that they attempted a shot on goal, [[Thomas Delaney]] launching the ball over. Denmark midfielder [[William Kvist]] was taken off on a stretcher after a sustaining a blow to the ribs in a challenge with [[Jefferson Farfán]], and then [[Christian Cueva]] was brought down in the penalty area by [[Yussuf Poulsen]]. The referee pointed to the spot upon reviewing video footage and Cueva blazed over, much to the dismay of Peru's sizable travelling support.<ref>((cite web |last=Creek |first=Stephen |title=Heartbreak for Cueva as Poulsen strikes |url=http://www.goal.com/en-qa/match/peru-v-denmark/report/48v2zgrdav6wmog0wwbiowu7d |website=Goal.com |date=16 June 2018))</ref> Adopting a more adventurous approach after the restart, Denmark were rewarded when [[Christian Eriksen]]'s precise through-ball allowed Poulsen to open the scoring with a low left foot shot.<ref>((cite web |title=Denmark do just enough to edge out Peru |url=https://www.fifa.com/worldcup/news/per-v-den-review--461-wds-2958886 |website=FIFA.com |publisher=Fédération Internationale de Football Association |date=16 June 2018))</ref> Peru were denied an immediate equaliser when Denmark goalkeeper Schmeichel produced a one-handed save to deny Flores.

===Denmark vs Australia===
The two teams had met in three previous matches, most recently in a friendly in 2012, with Denmark prevailing 2–0.<ref name=Kit/>

[[Thomas Delaney]] headed wide from [[Pione Sisto]]'s cross after just two minutes against Australia. At the other end, [[Mathew Leckie]] rose above the Danish defence to head a corner over the bar but Denmark countered and [[Nicolai Jørgensen]]'s lay-off afforded [[Christian Eriksen]] the chance to hit a half-volley past [[Mathew Ryan]] and into the top left corner of the net. Sisto shot a 20-yard drive and Jørgensen flashed a close-range header just wide. In the 35th minute, referee consulted VAR and decided that [[Yussuf Poulsen]] used his arm to block Leckie's headed shot and awarded the penalty, which [[Mile Jedinak]] shot into the bottom right corner of the net. Poulsen had a penalty claim of his own waved away early in the second half after he tumbled to the ground on his way into the Australia box. [[Kasper Schmeichel]] failed to collect a looping long ball before Leckie flashed the ball across the face of goal. [[Daniel Arzani]] teed up [[Aaron Mooy]] for a shot that flew just over the top right corner of Schmeichel's goal from outside the box. [[Andrew Nabbout]] left the field with a dislocated shoulder and was replaced by [[Tomi Juric]].<ref>((cite web |last=Creek |first=Stephen |title=Jedinak strikes back after Eriksen rocket |url=http://www.goal.com/en-au/match/denmark-v-australia/report/6p8l3bm8q34z4sa7tg976qi95 |website=Goal.com |date=21 June 2018))</ref>

[[Mark Milligan]] completed 85 passes in this match - a record for an Australian player in a single game at a World Cup tournament.<ref>((cite web |last=Johnston |first=Neil |title=Denmark 1 Australia 1 |url=https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/44439100 |work=BBC Sport |date=21 June 2018))</ref> As Poulsen had a yellow card in the previous match, he did not play for Denmark in the next match.

[[Yoshimar Yotún]]'s shot from the halfway line drifted wide. [[Raphaël Varane]] missed with a header before [[Pedro Gallese]] saved with his legs to deny [[Antoine Griezmann]] after [[Olivier Giroud]] found him with a headed pass. [[Paolo Guerrero]] shot straight at [[Hugo Lloris]] on the turn after [[Christian Cueva]] found him in the box. [[Paul Pogba]] slid Giroud into the area and when his shot looped over Gallese via a deflection off [[Christian Ramos]], [[Kylian Mbappé]] tapped into the empty net from inside the six-yard box. [[Pedro Aquino]] clipped the outside of the post with a drive from 25 yards. [[André Carrillo]] fired over the crossbar and [[Jefferson Farfán]] hit the side-netting. Guerrero missed a late free-kick, and France secured their place in the knockout stages, while Peru were knocked out.<ref>((cite web |last=Smith |first=Jamie |title=Mbappe books last-16 spot with record goal |url=http://www.goal.com/en/news/8/main/2018/06/21/45729252/france-1-peru-0-mbappe-books-last-16-spot-with-record-goal |website=Goal.com |date=21 June 2018))</ref>

[[File:Football supporters of France at FIFA World Cup 2018 (Moscow, 26.06.2018).jpg|thumb|France supporters at the FIFA Fan Fest in Moscow watch the second half of the match on the big screen.]]
The two teams had faced each other in 15 matches, including two World Cup group stage matches, in [[1998 FIFA World Cup|1998]], won by France [[1998 FIFA World Cup Group C#France vs Denmark|2–1]], and in [[2002 FIFA World Cup|2002]], won by Denmark [[2002 FIFA World Cup Group A#Denmark vs France|2–0]].<ref name=Kit7/>

[[Olivier Giroud]] and [[Raphaël Varane]] sent early efforts off target. In the 38th minute a strike from [[Antoine Griezmann]] was straight at [[Kasper Schmeichel]]. [[Steve Mandanda]] spilled a long-range [[Christian Eriksen]] free-kick before recovering to claim the loose ball ahead of lurking striker [[Andreas Cornelius]]. Eriksen shot wide in the 59th minute, although France substitute [[Nabil Fekir]] shot at the side-netting with a drive shortly after his introduction for Griezmann. Fekir forced a stop from Schmeichel in the 82nd minute, while Giroud had a late penalty appeal rejected by the referee.<ref>((cite web |last=Bevan |first=Chris |title=Denmark 0 France 0 |url=https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/44439249 |work=BBC Sport |date=26 June 2018))</ref><ref>((cite web |last=Smith |first=Jamie |title=World Cup's first stalemate sends both teams through |url=http://www.goal.com/en-us/news/55/main/2018/06/26/45870352/denmark-0-france-0-world-cups-first-stalemate-sends-both |website=Goal.com |date=26 June 2018))</ref>

===Australia vs Peru===
[[File:Австралия Перу ЧМ 2018 Сочи.jpg|thumb|Paolo Guerrero celebrating his goal]]
The two teams had never met before.<ref name=Kit/>

[[Mile Jedinak]] was booked for a high boot on [[Christian Cueva]] after nine minutes of the first half. At the 18th minute, [[Paolo Guerrero]] broke into the penalty area, cut back onto his right foot and swung a deep cross for [[André Carrillo]] to lash a volley through Jedinak's legs and into the bottom right corner of the net. [[Tom Rogic]] beat three defenders on a run into the penalty area after 26 minutes and saw his shot saved by [[Pedro Gallese]], before [[Mathew Leckie]] was denied by an [[Anderson Santamaría]] tackle as he slid in on goal. Five minutes into the second half, Guerrero hooked the ball into the far corner of the net beyond [[Mathew Ryan]]'s left hand. Jedinak's far-post header was saved by Gallese and [[Trent Sainsbury]] shot wide from close range, while substitute [[Tim Cahill]] had a volley blocked inside the penalty area. [[Edison Flores]] crashed a low drive onto the post from the edge of the box in the closing minutes, but the offside flag was raised.<ref>((cite web |last=Creek |first=Stephen |title=Guerrero stars as Gareca's men make proud exit |url=http://www.goal.com/en/news/8/main/2018/06/26/45870652/australia-0-peru-2-guerrero-stars-as-garecas-men-make-proud |website=Goal.com |date=26 June 2018))</ref>

Carrillo became the first Peru player to score at a World Cup in 36 years. He ended a barren run of 205 minutes since [[Guillermo La Rosa]] struck in a [[1982 FIFA World Cup Group 1#Poland vs Peru|5–1]] loss to Poland during Spain 1982.<ref>((cite web |title=Peru sign off in style |url=https://www.fifa.com/worldcup/archive/russia2018/matches/match/300331506/#match-summary |website=FIFA.com |publisher=Fédération Internationale de Football Association |date=26 June 2018))</ref> Peru won their first match at the World Cup since a [[1978 FIFA World Cup Group 4#Peru vs Iran|4–1]] win over Iran in 1978. Guerrero - aged 34 years and 176 days - became the third oldest South American scorer at the World Cup, behind only Argentina's [[Martín Palermo]] (36 years, 227 days) and [[Obdulio Varela]] of Uruguay (36 years 279 days). Cahill became the first Australian to appear at four different World Cup finals.<ref>((cite web |last=Emons |first=Michael |title=Australia 0 Peru 2 |url=https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/44439242 |work=BBC Sport |date=26 June 2018))</ref> For Australia, they had not won any World Cup matches since their last major victory in [[2010 FIFA World Cup]], beating [[Serbia national football team|Serbia]] 2–1; and also Australia had not defeated any South American team in the [[FIFA World Cup]], having been beaten by [[Brazil national football team|Brazil]] 0–2 in 2006, drew 0–0 and lost 1–3 to [[Chile national football team|Chile]] in 1974 and 2014.

==Discipline==
Fair play points would have been used as tiebreakers if the overall and head-to-head records of teams were tied. These were calculated based on yellow and red cards received in all group matches as follows:<ref name="regulations"/>
*first yellow card: minus 1 point;
*indirect red card (second yellow card): minus 3 points;
*direct red card: minus 4 points;
*yellow card and direct red card: minus 5 points;

Only one of the above deductions were applied to a player in a single match.
