🧠 Match Summary

vs

France delivered a commanding performance at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, dismantling Sweden 3-0 to advance in the FIFA World Cup 2026. Kylian Mbappé opened the scoring just before half-time on 45 minutes, giving Les Bleus the perfect platform heading into the break. Bradley Barcola extended the lead eight minutes into the second half, and Mbappé sealed the victory with his second of the night on 74 minutes, capping a dominant display.

France's superiority was evident throughout, with 61% possession, 25 shots to Sweden's eight, and 12 efforts on target keeping the Swedish goalkeeper busy with nine saves. Sweden mustered little threat, managing only three shots on target, and will now reflect on a comprehensive defeat as France march confidently into the next round.
