Mbappé and the surreal record that neither Messi nor Cristiano could achieve
Kylian Mbappe and the record against Poland that neither Cristiano nor Messi achieved in the World Cup
Kylian Mbappé led France into the round of 16 of the 2022 World Cup with a brace against Poland, making him the top scorer at Qatar 2022. Following the result, the Frenchman broke an important record that neither Messi nor Cristiano could break at his age.
The double in Poland meant an unprecedented record for the Paris Saint-Germain player. With that goal he reached his ninth goal in World Cups, an unthinkable amount for any footballer at his 23 years of age. In Russia 2018 he scored four and now in Qatar 2022 he has five.

Such a milestone puts him as the best 23-year-old player in the history of the World Cup. A record that neither Pelé nor Maradona could at that age. Much less Messi and Cristiano, who barely had a goal at 23 in a World Cup. For this reason, it is frightening that Kylian could set records never seen before in a World Cup.
Is France a candidate to repeat the title?
The French team is one of the possible candidates to take the crown in Qatar 2022. Kylian Mbappe is in an important moment and despite the losses they have, Deschamps' team seems to be able to get into the top four of the tournament while waiting for their opponent between England and Senegal.
