In the second major World Cup upset of the day, France has defeated Brazil 1-0, eliminating the defending champs from the tournament. Ace striker Thierry Henry notched the only goal of the game in the 57th minute, and France held on despite a late surge by Brazil. Despite being the favorites, Brazil never really looked confident vs. France, and will leave Germany without their sixth World Cup. France will face Portugal in the semifinals on July 5th.
