France has six points and can qualify if Ecuador and Honduras draw later Friday.
Giroud and Blasie Matuidi scored a minute apart and Mathieu Valbuena added another to give France a 3-0 halftime lead.
Benzema made up for a first-half penalty miss with a poacher's finish in the 67th, and then turned provider for Moussa Sissoko cheap nike zoom vaporfly , who made it 5-0 with a neat side-footed effort in the 73rd.
Switzerland pulled two consolation goals back as Blerim Dzemaili scored with a free kick in the 81st and Granit Xhaka slotted in the second in the 87th.
Benzema thought he had scored his second - and the goal of the night - but his curling, first-time strike was ruled out because Dutch referee Bjorn Kuipers
blew his whistle for full time just seconds before the shot.
Friday marked the fourth anniversary of France's infamous World Cup training ground strike four years ago in South Africa, when the players shamed a nation
back home.
How different things look now.
France has scored eight goals in two games and Benzema could even afford to miss a penalty against a poor Swiss side that failed to live up to its
reputation as one of the hardest teams around to break down.
Giroud had distinguished himself the wrong way early on. In the sixth minute, center half Steve Von Bergen came off with blood pouring down from under his
left eye after Giroud kicked him in the face challenging for the ball.
Von Bergen was replaced by Philippe Senderos and things went from bad to awful from then on as Switzerland's makeshift defense simply could not cope with
the ferocious pace of France's breaks from midfield and the slick movement of
its interchanging forward line.
"France has excellent individual players and they can go very far in this tournament. When the opponent has such strong individual players cheap nike hyperdunk 2017 , they can move quickly to counterattack,'' Switzerland coach Ottmar Hitzfeld said through a translator. "We have seen
France's potential. They had an explosion of power and this shows the class of
this team.''
Deschamps had dropped midfielder Paul Pogba, who was lucky not to be sent off against Honduras for aiming a wild kick at Wilson Palacios, warning him that he
needs to control his temper better.
After coming on as a substitute cheap nike air more money , Pogba sent an exquisite pass with the outside of his right boot that had Senderos kicking at air, and Benzema finished
confidently for his third goal of the tournament. The Real Madrid forward then
instigated a move and waited for Sissoko to break down the right, serving him
with an inch-perfect pass.
Deschamps waved his hands in frustration after Switzerland's second goal, but it was his substitution - replacing Mamadou Sakho with Laurent Koscielny - that
unsettled the defense.
The Swiss conceded too easily throughout the game.
Giroud jumped above Behrami from near the back of the penalty area to head powerfully under the crossbar in the 17th minute. Then cheap nike epic react flyknit , Valon Behrami gave the ball away to Benzema, who fed Matuidi sprinting down the left, and the Paris Saint-Germain
midfielder slotted neatly inside the near post.
The Swiss had only one shot on target in the first half, with goalkeeper Hugo Lloris diving low to keep out Mehmedi's drive. Shaqiri picked up the rebound and
scuffed a low shot that rolled just wide.
That close miss went unpunished by Benzema cheap nike zoom vapor street flyknit , who missed from the spot after being tripped by Johan Djourou in the 32nd. Yohan Cabaye hit the crossbar from
the rebound.
It mattered little as France caught Switzerland with a classic counterattack, Giroud galloping into space down the left and picking out Valbuena at the back
post.
Valbuena sprinted over to jump on Giroud as he gave him a celebratory piggy back-ride.
