Tunisia beat the holders but still exit
Tunisia finished with a victory over France, taking their total to four points. Australia's win against Denmark nevertheless left Tunisia third in Group D. France retained first place despite the defeat. The fixture is a useful example of how winning the final group match and qualifying for the next round are separate outcomes.
