Goodnight
Anyway, I've been at this for about six hours now so I'm going to sign off for the night.
Read a whole load of stuff about England's win over Kosovo here.
Come back tomorrow for the Republic of Ireland's winner-takes-all showdown with Denmark.
Post update
Turkey also won 2-0, but they had needed France to slip up.
FULL-TIME
Albania 0-2 France
It's all over. France win the group, although probably won't be top seeds at Euro 2020.
Post update
Albania 0-2 France
France midfilder Corentin Tolisso is banging his fists onto the turf after being caught with a tackle, which has also hurt an Albanian.
INJURY TIME
Albania 0-2 France
Three minutes added on.

Final France switch, Benjamin Pavard is on for Leo Dubois.
SUBSTITUTION
Albania 0-2 France
France make a change as Real Betis midfielder Nabil Fekir replaces Monaco striker Wissam Ben Yedder.
Post update
Albania 0-2 France
Albania are still giving this a go, they'd love to score a goal in their new ground. But I don't see it happened.
SUBSTITUTION
Albania 0-2 France
Albania's final change as Lorenc Trashi - cool name - replaces captain Elseid Hysaj.
Post update
Albania 0-2 France
Not sure I've mentioned Moussa Sissoko yet, but he is playing.

Albania's half-time sub Ledian Memushaj slams the free-kick off the wall and Elseid Hysaj drills the rebound well over.
Post update
Albania 0-2 France
France's Real Madrid defender Raphael Varane is down getting treatment as Albania wait to take a free-kick.
SUBSTITUTION
Albania 0-2 France
The lesser-spotted Benjamin Mendy is replaced by Lucas Digne. An all-Premier League swap.
HITS THE WOODWORK
Albania 0-2 France
So close from Olivier Giroud. He's picked out on the edge of the box and curls an absolute beauty towards the top corner. It looks for all the world a goal except it hits the inside of the post.
Post update
Albania 0-2 France
Antoine Griezmann's set-pieces have been brilliant today. Another corner finds Corentin Tolisso but he heads this one over the bar.
Post update
Albania 0-2 France
Corner to France. Antoine Griezmann's cross goes past all the strikers and reaches Leo Dubois at the back post. The Lyon right-back tries and fails to beat the keeper at his near post.
Post update
Gylfi Sigurdsson has just done a goal for Iceland. They are 2-1 up in Moldova.
Post update
Albania 0-2 France
Wissam Ben Yedder clips a pass over the top to Olivier Giroud. But surely the angle is too wide for the striker to shoot? Nope, he hits a sweet volley from the left-hand side of the box which the keeper does well to save.
Post update
Albania 0-2 France
It's a bit end to end at the moment, no real pattern to this game.
