Kylian Mbappé, the superstar of the France team and Paris SG, took sole control of the World Cup scoring charts thanks to his double against Poland. By scoring two of the three goals in Les Bleus’ victory in the round of 16 against Poland (3-1), the blue prodigy has reached 5 goals since the start of the competition.
Mbappé, only 23 years old, has become at the same time the 7th best director in the history of the France team, with 33 goals in 63 selections, two more than Zinedine Zidane (31 goals in 108 selections). In the World Cup, he has scored 9 goals in two editions (four in 2018, five at this stage of the competition this year in Qatar).
Only Just Fontaine in the history of the Blues has done better (13 goals at the only 1958 World Cup in Sweden, an absolute record).
