After initial confusion, FIFA corrected its decision and credited the third goal in the France-Ukraine match to Mamadou Sakho, acknowledging it was not an own goal by Oleg Gusev. The correction was made after various camera angles clarified that Sakho’s knee propelled the ball into the net. Sakho himself confirmed his authorship of the goal, and FIFA adjusted the official credit accordingly.
