France vs. Sweden score, 2026 FIFA World Cup: Kylian Mbappe and Les Bleus eliminate Sweden, Paraguay up next

This is it! France win 3-0 and advance to the round of 16 where they will meet Paraguay. Sweden are out. 

Today at MetLife, another milestone has been hit as total attendance at the World Cup has now surpassed 5,000,000 fans, setting an all-time attendance record. This pace is set to double the previous record of 3,587,538 fans, which was also set in the United States during the 1994 World Cup. Matches have had an average attendance of 64,511, which is 99.7% of stadium capacity. Despite high ticket prices, people can feel World Cup fever and are showing up at the end of the day to see these games in person, as we have another packed house of 80,677 on hand to see France face Sweden. 

75' This is over already: Michael Olise provides another brilliant assist, but once again the spotlight belongs to Kylian Mbappe. The France captain makes it 3-0 with his sixth goal of the tournament and the 18th World Cup goal of his career. That leaves him just one behind Lionel Messi's all-time record, set in this tournament. The race for history is well and truly on!

If you haven't watch it yet, here's the second goal scored by Barcola: 

63' France are now fully in control of the match and are already looking at the next round: If things don't change they will meet Paraguay in the round of 16! 

52' It's 2-0 for France as Olise finds Barcola between the lines and the PSG striker scored his second goal of the tournament. Things look much better now for the European giants... 

45' Right before the break Mbappe scores the opening goal of the match! It's already his fifth goal of the tournament, and what a crucial one it could prove to be. Dembele picked him out following a corner, and the Real Madrid forward raced into the box before calmly slotting the ball past the goalkeeper. Mbappe then sprinted straight to Didier Deschamps to celebrate after everything that has happened over the past week, a heartwarming moment to witness. France have been the better side and thoroughly deserve their 1-0 lead at the break.

35' This match has burst into life! Olise came within inches of scoring one of the goals of the World Cup with a spectacular bicycle kick, only to be denied by the post. Seconds later, Barcola had another golden opportunity but couldn't find the net. France are knocking on the door after two huge chances in quick succession.

32' Mbappe as convinced he had scored! France are growing into the game at a rapid pace, with Barcola causing all sorts of problems down the right side of the attack. His cross found Mbappe in a promising position, but the striker could only hit the post. He should have done better.

30' It may not be the thrilling contest many were expecting, but both France and Sweden have had their chances. Mbappe thought he had given France the lead, only for his effort to be ruled out for offside. Sweden, meanwhile, have finally begun to threaten at the other end, forcing their first shot on target of the match.

20' As France struggle to find space inside the box, both Lucas Digne and Kylian Mbappé have tried their luck from distance, while Bradley Barcola made a surging run into the area but couldn't find the back of the net. Still 0-0 but France are improving. 

15' Graham Potter seemed to have prepared well this game from a tactical standpoint as the Swedish team is currently defending pretty well against such as strong side. The only question now is how long they can sustain this and maintain this level of attention. 

10' After the opening ten minutes into the match, France are in control and keep trying to find the right spaces between the defense and the midfield of the Swedish side but are still yet to produce their first real chance of the day at the MetLife stadium. 

The anthems have begun and both teams are on the pitch. Kickoff is just moments away!

Great news for France as their coach Didier Deschamps is back on the sideline today after missing France's victory over Norway to attend his mother's funeral. He will be leading France in his last World Cup as national team manager as it was previously announced. 

Let's now take a look at the lineups ahead of today's match: 

France: Mike Maignan; Jules Kounde, Dayot Upamecano, William Saliba, Lucas Digne; Adrien Rabiot, Aurelien Tchouameni; Ousmane Dembele, Michael Olise, Bradley Barcola, Kylian Mbappe. 

Sweden: Jacob Widell Zetterstrom; Gabriel Gudmundsson, Viktor Lindelof, Gustaf Lagerbielke; Elliot Stroud, Lucas Bergvall, Yasin Ayari, Daniel Svensson; Alexander Isak, Anthony Elanga, Viktor Gyokeres. 

Sweden has been a fun side to see in action, but the sheer amount of options in the French attack will be overwhelming when it comes down to it. Mbappe will continue to add to his own goal count as France breaks our streak of close knockout matches. Pick: France 3, Sweden 1
