France defeated Iraq 3-0 in Group I. Kylian Mbappé scored a brace in his 100th appearance for the national team, and Ousmane Dembélé added another goal. The match in Philadelphia was suspended for over two hours due to a thunderstorm, but France dominated after the break.
Norway beat Senegal 3-2 in the same group, with Erling Haaland scoring twice to help his team advance. Both France and Norway have 6 points after two matches and will compete for the top spot in the final group stage.
In Group J, Algeria came from behind to beat Jordan 2-1. Jordan took the lead in the first half through Nizar al-Rashdan, but second-half goals from Nadir Benbuali and Amine Gouiri secured the win for Algeria.
The victory keeps Algeria's hopes alive for advancing. In the final round, Algeria will face Austria, while Jordan takes on Argentina, which already has 6 points and qualified for the knockout stage.
