Kylian Mbappé continues his almost perfect World Cup.
This Sunday, against Poland in the round of 16, the PSG striker scored an incredible double.
First the second goal of the France team as the last quarter of an hour approaches (74th).
All at the conclusion of a counter-attack perfectly led by Olivier Giroud and Ousmane Dembélé.
Alone at the entrance to the Polish surface, slightly off center on the left side, Mbappé fired a huge right shot to deceive Wojciech Szczesny.
His double arrived in additional time (90th + 1) and it is no less beautiful.
Still on the left side, in the area, the 2018 world champion unleashes a huge new strike towards the top corner of Szczesny.
3-0 and the Blues go through to the quarter-finals.
These are the fourth and fifth goals for the former Monegasque in this 2022 World Cup after a goal against Australia (4-1) and a double against Denmark (2-1).
Remained silent despite coming into play against Tunisia (0-1), Mbappé finds the way to the nets.
It is his 8th and 9th goals in total in the World Cup.
Already a better total than Cristiano Ronaldo, for example (8 goals).
The same as Lionel Messi.
All before he even celebrated his 24th birthday.
In the first period against Poland, Mbappé signed an assist for Olivier Giroud (44th), the 52nd goal for the French team for the latter.
A historic record.
Mbappé has 33 goals in 63 appearances.
8 - Kylian Mbappé is the first player in history to score 8 goals in the World Cup before turning 24.
Freak.
