\"BENZEMA-SWITZERLAN\"<\/a>SALVADOR, June 21- France are on the brink of reaching the World Cup last 16 after their emphatic 5-2 win over Switzerland on Friday kept them in control of Group E.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The French backed up their opening 3-0 win over Honduras by racing into a 2-0 lead as Olivier Giroud’s 16th-minute header was followed by Blaise Matuidi’s goal just 66 seconds later.<\/p>\n

Diminutive right-winger Mathieu Valbuena put the result beyond doubt with France’s third just before the break.<\/p>\n

Real Madrid’s Karim Benzema missed a first-half penalty, but then netted their fourth before Newcastle United’s midfielder Moussa Sissoko also claimed a second-half goal.<\/p>\n

Only the heroics of Swiss goalkeeper Diego Benaglio prevented more French goals before Blerim Dzemaili and Granit Xhaka scored late consolation goals.<\/p>\n

“This could have been more than perfect,” said France coach Didier Deschamps, who indicated that the two late goals conceded was the only dampener.<\/p>\n

“We were up against a good team and to score five goals and win 5-2, it was a very good evening.<\/p>\n

“Six points after two matches is ideal. We have to wait for the next match but we have a good goal difference and the next match will decide first and second place.”<\/p>\n

France will have their last 16 qualification confirmed unless Ecuador beat Honduras later Friday in Curitiba.<\/p>\n

The Swiss, who have not beaten France since 1992, may now need to beat Honduras next Wednesday to qualify for the last 16. They beat Ecuador 2-1 in their opener.<\/p>\n

“I’m very disappointed by our defeat, it was a very bleak day for us,” said Swiss coach Ottmar Hitzfeld.<\/p>\n

“The French were ice cold in taking their chances and they had excellent counter-attacks.”<\/p>\n

On the anniversary of their infamous strike at South Africa 2010, France put themselves amongst the World Cup favourites.<\/p>\n

Salvador has now seen 17 goals in three World Cup matches — the most by far of Brazil’s 12 venues — after the Netherlands routed Spain 5-1 here and Germany hammered Portugal 4-0 last Monday.<\/p>\n

Swiss coach Ottmar Hitzfeld was forced into an early change when centre-back Steven von Bergen had to leave the field with a heavy cut over his left eye, Philippe Senderos replacing him.<\/p>\n

Giroud, back in for Antoine Griezmann after spending most of the Honduras win on the bench, wasted little time in repaying Deschamps’ faith for the opening goal.<\/p>\n

He met Valbuena’s floated corner and his looping header beat Benaglio despite the goalkeeper getting an outstretched glove ot the ball.<\/p>\n

It was France’s 100th goal at World Cup finals.<\/p>\n

The French doubled their lead 66 seconds later as Benzema snapped up a stray pass, charged into the Swiss half and put away Paris Saint-Germain midfielder Matuidi, who fired inside Benaglio’s near post.<\/p>\n

The Swiss came perilously close to pulling a goal back as a Xhaka strike was ruled offside, then Xherdan Shaqiri’s shot flew across the French goal.<\/p>\n

There was drama in the 31st minute when Swiss defender Johan Djourou was aharshly adjudged to have fouled Benzema to give away a penalty, but his spot-kick was blocked by Benaglio and Cabaye’s follow-up hit the crossbar.<\/p>\n

France’s third goal was textbook counter-attacking as Benzema claimed the ball after a Swiss corner and passe dto Rafael Varane who put Giroud into space on the left wing.<\/p>\n

Without a defender near him, the Arsenal star sprinted away and squared for Valbuena at the far post to make it 3-0 after 40 minutes.<\/p>\n

Benzema made up for his first-half penalty miss when he fired home replacement Paul Pogba’s chip over the top midway through the second-half.<\/p>\n

He then turned provider by putting Sissoko in space and the midfielder smashed his shot into the left-hand corner with 17 minutes remaining for France’s fifth.<\/p>\n

Dzemali finally got the hapless Swiss on the scoreboard when his freekick flew through the French wall nine minutes from time before Xhaka drilled home after a chip from Swiss captain Gokhan Inler.<\/p>\n

Benzema put the ball in the net one more time but his “goal” came just a couple of seconds too late as the referee had already blown for full-time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
