France – North Korea : 1-0

Beaten by North Korea in the World Cup U20 final two years ago, the French players got their revenge as they have beaten the Asian side on this Thursday. After netting a hat-trick in the last game, the youngster Amelie Delabre fired once again her team to the win as she netted the winning goal on a penalty in the first half.

Then, the Gilles Eyquem’s players managed to keep their advantage and were helped by Mylène Chavas, the Sud Ladies Cup 2018 best goalkeeper, who stopped the rare shots on target the North Koreans had during the rest of the game.
