France made history by setting two special World Cup records with their win over Sweden.

France made World Cup history by moving on to the round of 16 after beating Sweden 3-0. Didier Deschamps’ team kept up their great form, winning their fourth game in a row after victories over Iraq, Norway, and Senegal in the group stage.

Next up, Les Bleus will face Paraguay, who surprised everyone by knocking out Germany on penalties. This was the first time Germany, a four-time champion, was eliminated this way at the World Cup.

France’s win was sealed by a goal from Bradley Barcola and two from Kylian Mbappe, who now shares the lead in the race for the golden boot.

Along with moving forward comfortably, France set two special records. They became the first team to win seven straight matches against UEFA opponents, a streak they’ll likely want to keep going to win the trophy on July 19.

Things look good for France, as they won all their group matches in a major tournament for the first time since the 1998 World Cup — the year they won their first championship.

Deschamps’ team also made history by scoring three goals in five games in a row at the World Cup, showing just how strong they are this time around.

On top of that, France got their first-ever win against Sweden in a big tournament. Before this, they had drawn 1-1 at Euro 1992 and lost 2-0 to Sweden at Euro 2012, where Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Sebastian Larsson scored.
