Kylian Mbappé scored a brace and Michael Olise had a glistering performance as France overpowered Sweden in a 3-0 victory on Tuesday to reach the last 16 of the World Cup.
France will now face Paraguay, who stunned Germany in a 4-3 win on penalties, for a place in the quarter-finals.
Mbappé, meanwhile, increased his overall tally of World Cup goals to 18, just one from Lionel Messi's all-time record of 19.
France took a deserved lead in the 45th minute when Michael Olise and Ousmane Dembélé combined from a corner and slid Mbappé in. The Real Madrid star then dribbled Viktor Gyokeres and fired the ball into the net.
The 2018 world champions doubled their advantage after Olise found Bradley Barcola, who sent it home in the 53rd.
Mbappé sealed the win in the 74th after Olise sneaked a pass to him into the box. The French star was subbed off in the 85th minute and will have to wait until the next match to try to equal or beat Messi's record.
Messi, however, can increase his tally as Argentina are still to play in the round of 32 against Cape Verde on Friday, while France are back in action on Saturday.
