France's impressive victory over Norway in the FIFA World Cup qualifier last Friday has sent shockwaves through the football world, prompting German media to consider them a potential opponent for Germany in the next knockout round.

France is a formidable force. After winning all three matches in Group I, France is undoubtedly one of the most impressive teams in the group stage of the 2026 FIFA World Cup. Following their dominant victory over Norway, they have earned praise from media worldwide, with particular attention paid to their potent attacking force.

In Germany, the French team led by Mbappé is also being taken seriously. Germany has already advanced but lost to Ecuador on Thursday. They will face Paraguay in the Round of 16 on Monday. If Germany advances and France beats Sweden at MetLife Stadium on Tuesday, the two teams could meet in the quarterfinals.

"Watch out, Nagelsmann! Watch out, Germany!"

German media has begun predicting this potential matchup, which could take place in Philadelphia on Saturday, July 4th, with kickoff at 11:00 PM Beijing time (5:00 PM CEST). German media is particularly concerned about O. Dembélé's performance. Germany's Bild newspaper ran the headline "O. Dembélé's Goals Are a Wake-up Call for Nagelsmann," describing the player who scored a hat-trick against Norway as performing at a "world-class level" and wrote: "France is threatening us in the Round of 16."

Journalist Antonia Meiwald wrote: "Watch out, Nagelsmann! Watch out, Germany! France launched a fierce attacking display in their final group stage match of the FIFA World Cup. This French team is one to watch, especially O. Dembélé, one of the best players in the world, who has sent a clear warning to Nagelsmann and his team."

Sky Sport Germany stated: "O. Dembélé and France Are on Fire." Journalist Kai Hau also looked ahead to the upcoming schedule: "If Germany beats Paraguay in the Round of 16 first and then faces France in Philadelphia on July 4th, they will need to produce an almost perfect performance. O. Dembélé and his teammates will show no mercy!"
