Rayan Cherki made another brief appearance from the bench as France cruised to a comfortable 3-0 victory over Sweden in the World Cup last-32.
Les Bleus dominated from the first whistle despite the oppressive East Coast heat. Kylian Mbappé had an early effort ruled out for offside and struck the post from a low Jules Koundé cross, while Michael Olise hit the upright with a scissor kick.
Sweden goalkeeper Jacob Widell Zetterström produced a string of exceptional saves to keep the French at bay, but his resistance was finally broken just before half-time. Mbappé latched onto Ousmane Dembélé's slide-rule pass, wrong-footed Viktor Gyökeres and picked out the far corner.
Sweden had a golden chance to equalise immediately when Elliot Stroud blazed over from 12 yards. That proved to be their final meaningful attack.
The second half belonged entirely to France. Bradley Barcola doubled the advantage eight minutes after the restart, driving a powerful effort into the near post following a clever pass from Olise. Zetterström continued his individual heroics to deny both Dembélé and Olise in one-on-one situations, but he was powerless to stop France's third in the 74th minute. Mbappé ran onto another precise Olise assist to curl home his second of the night.
The brace moves the superstar to six goals for the tournament, tying Lionel Messi at the top of the Golden Boot race, while making him the all-time leading goalscorer in World Cup knockout history with 10 goals.
France now march on to face surprise package Paraguay, who dramatically eliminated Germany on penalties in Philadelphia on Saturday, July 4.
As for Cherki, the City midfielder's contribution was brief: 10 minutes, two touches, one accurate pass and a single pass into the final third, per FotMob.
