France and Nigeria engaged in a spirited match in the 2014 World Cup Round of 16 that saw the Nigerians match the French for the first half before appearing to run out of gas as the contest went on.
Paul Pogba struck at the 79' mark for France on a header past Nigerian goalkeeper Vincent Enyeama for the deciding score. Mathieu Valbuena tacked on a second goal in additional time to seal the deal at 2-0. Valbueno was credited with the score, but it was actually an own goal off the leg of Joseph Yobo.
