Olivia Rodrigo in attendance for France vs Sweden FIFA World Cup 2026 Round of 32 clash

The contest is taking place at the New York-New Jersey Stadium.

It is going to be one of these nations that will continue their journey forward in the 2026 FIFA World Cup. The mega competition is in the knockout stage and every game for every team is a must-win.

Led by Dider Deschamps, the France national football team have been in a top of the line form in their last three games. They continue to show that will their majority of the ball control. Les Bleus have scored a goal in the final moments of the first half. It was none other than Kylian Mbappe who fired the ball at the back of the net to give France a 1-0 advantage.

Graham Potter’s men have surely shown some signs of light, but it is not going to be enough against the two-time world champions. The Sweden national football team are doing well in defence, but they must step up their performance in the final third. Their progression to the next stage of the tournament is only going to be possible if they come out on top against the Frenchmen.
