France vs. Sweden Highlights: Mbappé Bags Brace To Lead France To Round of 16
Updated: Jul 01, 2026 - 2:27 AM ET
France cruised into the Round of 16 with a dominant 3-0 win over Sweden at New York New Jersey Stadium, headlined by a spectacular Kylian Mbappé brace. The French captain broke the record for the most World Cup knockout stage goals in history while also moving just one goal behind Lionel Messi’s career tally of 19.
Bradley Barcola’s scored in the second half and Mbappé’s second goal were both assisted by Michael Olise, to put the result on ice for France.
The scoreline could have been far worse for Sweden if not for goalkeeper Jacob Zetterström, who had a nine-save performance despite conceding three times. Les Bleus will move on to the round of 16 where they will face Paraguay on July 4 at 5:00 p.m. ET at Philadelphia Stadium.
Here are the top moments from France vs. Sweden:
