• TF1 interrupted the retransmission of the match of the French team before the final whistle.

  • Viewers were deprived of Antoine Griezmann's goal being canceled by referee Matt Conger.

If you still think Les Bleus snatched a draw against Tunisia, you can thank TF1.

The television channel, which broadcast the third group match of the French team in this 2022 World Cup, interrupted its broadcast immediately after the goal of Antoine Griezmann (90 + 8), thinking that the meeting was over.

It was without counting on the VAR, who called Matt Conger to review the action of Grizou's equalizer, the referee finally deciding to cancel it for a very questionable passive offside after long minutes of procrastination.

And during this time, TF1 continued to send the pub, without ever resuming the antenna.

Thanks again to the main broadcaster of the Blues, even if the channel apologized by the voice of its presenter, Grégoire Margotton, long after having resumed speaking.

"We deprived them of the emotion of live"

“We wanted to apologize to Bixente for having anticipated the end of this match.

We were convinced, really, that the referee had whistled.

[We wanted to apologize] for depriving French viewers or Tunisian fans of the final result and one minute of VAR.

We came back later, of course, but we deprived them of the emotion of live.

We wanted to apologize to you.

It will not happen again.

Even if he did not watch the match on the channel, Antoine Griezmann was in the same situation as us, on the explanation of the cancellation of his equalizer.

"I didn't really understand, I must be offside on the cross, but I told the referee that I didn't want to dispute the ball on the cross... Too bad," he said. at the microphone of… TF1.

No goal from Griezmann, and no victory for the Blues who will have displayed a sad face for their last match of the Blues group.

But for that, we want more at DD than at TF1.
