Futsal: France chooses to lose against Iran to avoid Morocco?

To everyone’s surprise, France lost its last group match of the Futsal World Cup against Iran (4-1) on Sunday in Uzbekistan. Is this a strategy for Les Bleus to avoid Morocco or Brazil in order to face Thailand in the round of 16?

After two victories, France lost to Iran (4-1) at the end of a match that was as surprising as it was spectacular. While the Blues have gained momentum in the competition, they have been less offensive and decisive against Iran. Enough to give free rein to several interpretations. The most likely would be that France lost to the world number 4 to “benefit from a better draw in the World Cup and perhaps offer themselves a better run.”
