Kylian Mbappé etched his name further into World Cup history on Wednesday, becoming the all-time leading scorer in knockout-stage matches after netting twice as France dismantled Sweden 3-0 to book a last-16 meeting with Paraguay.

The result was never in doubt as France controlled the contest from start to finish, with Mbappé's brace the centerpiece of a commanding display that left Sweden without answer.

The milestone caps a remarkable run of form for Mbappé in the tournament's decisive rounds, surpassing every name that came before him in the record books for goals scored in World Cup knockout fixtures.

France now turn their attention to Paraguay, with Didier Deschamps' side carrying the momentum and confidence of a dominant group-stage showing into the knockout phase.
