France and Paraguay meet in Philadelphia for a place in the 2026 FIFA World Cup quarterfinals, with the winners advancing to face Morocco in the last eight.
Les Bleus are one of the tournament favorites after winning all four of their matches and scoring at least 3 goals in each, while Paraguay has already produced one of the World Cup's biggest surprises by eliminating Germany on penalties in the Round of 32.
The July 4 matchup also revives memories of the dramatic 1998 World Cup Round of 16, when hosts France needed a golden goal from Laurent Blanc in the 114th minute to finally break Paraguay's resistance.
Here’s a look at the confirmed commentary teams across some of the world’s biggest broadcasters.
