France vs. Sweden Preview

Ousmane Dembélé attacking Sweden's back line in transition is the thing to watch.

France have been ruthless when the game opens up. They have scored 10 goals in 3 matches, and 2 of those have come on the counter, which tells you how dangerous they are once they win it and go. Dembele comes in scorching after that 3-goal performance, and with Kylian Mbappé also sitting on 4 goals, France can turn one loose touch into a full-blown emergency.

Sweden are dangerous enough going forward to make this a real test, which is exactly why the space will be there. Viktor Gyokeres has put 7 shots on goal through the group stage and Alexander Isak has created 6 chances, so Sweden will commit numbers and ask questions. The problem is what happens after that. Sweden have already conceded 7 goals in 3 matches, and if their wingbacks or center-backs get stretched, Dembélé is the one who can rip the whole shape open.

Watch the first few Swedish attacks closely, because the second France wins it clean, Dembélé will be flying into the exact space that decides this match.
