This has quite easily been the best week in the history of Luxembourg football as they have somehow managed to follow up an impressive 1-0 win over Belarus by claiming the most unlikely of points in Toulouse.
France named a strong lineup and could not afford to slip up after Sweden dispatched of Belarus earlier on Sunday to pull level with the French on 16 points, but the lead is now just a single point as somehow Didier Deschamps's men couldn't get the job done.
Luxembourg managed to hold a France side featuring Antoine Griezmann, Alexandre Lacazette, Paul Pogba, and Kylian Mbappe scoreless for 90+ minutes, and they understandably went mental when the final whistle was blown.
Fair play to them, France were given odds of 1/100 to win that game, but the Luxembourg players put their backs to the wall and put in a hell of a shift.
France had 74% possession and a staggerng 31 goal attempts, but couldn't get the ball over the line and had to settle for an utterly embarrassing point.
On social media, nobody could quite believe it as the result was confirmed.
The previous time France failed to beat Luxembourg (1914) Franz Ferdinand was still alive and Charles de Gaulle was in his early 20s #FRALUX

This is the best week in Luxembourg history.
Two clean sheets in a row!
1-0 win over Belarus, and now 0-0 in France. Beyond incredible!— Michael Yokhin (@Yokhin) September 3, 2017
Luxembourg's biggest result since the 1815 Congress of Vienna.

Not sure what to say about Luxembourg tying a full-strength France 0-0 in Toulouse. Most unlikely result in all of WC qualifying?

It puts our point in Georgia into perspective, although we probably haven't had 31 goal attempts in this entire qualification campaign and France managed that in just over 90 minutes, but they couldn't find the key for the lock.
An amazing result for Luxembourg, we can only imagine the players will enjoy themselves tonight after an incredible week,
