Fifth. France is on an unprecedented scoring streak in the World Cup

France continued to make history at the 2026 FIFA World Cup after an emphatic 3-0 win over Sweden in the Round of 32 this Wednesday morning, booking their place in the Round of 16 and cementing their position as one of the top contenders for the title.

The advantage of the Roosters was not limited to the result of the match, but the victory was accompanied by historical records that reflect the offensive power of the team led by coach Didier Deschamps.

According to statistics specialist Stats Foot, France became the first team in World Cup history to score 3 or more goals in 5 consecutive matches in the tournament, an unprecedented feat since the start of the World Cup.

France drew 3-3 with Argentina in the 2022 World Cup final before losing on penalties.

In the current season, it beat Senegal 3-1, Iraq 3-0 and Norway 4-1 in the group stage, and beat Sweden 3-0 in the first qualifying round.

Statsfoot added that France also became the third team in World Cup history to score three goals in each of their first four games at the tournament, joining Hungary in 1954 and Portugal in 1966.

He noted that the French national team scored 13 goals in their first 4 matches at the 2026 World Cup, the first time they have scored 15 goals in their first 4 matches since 1958.

The same network confirmed that France currently have the most powerful attacking line at the 2026 FIFA World Cup with 13 goals, the highest scorer of any team that has participated in the tournament so far.

The French team is going to meet Paraguay in the 1/8 final on Sunday morning.
