At the 2026 World Cup, Mbappé was an unstoppable force on the pitch.

He scored ten goals, which was the most of the entire tournament.

This amazing performance won him the Golden Boot for a record second time.

No player had ever done that before in the history of the game.

During this tournament, the young French striker passed a legendary milestone.

With twenty-two career World Cup goals, he became the highest scorer in history.

He reached this incredible record when he was only twenty-seven years old.

Two of those goals came in a wild third-place match, which France lost six-four to England.

And yet, France went home without winning a medal match.

#10

Spain beat them two-zero in the semifinal, and England took third place.

#11

Mbappé owns almost every individual record, but the team crown keeps slipping away.

#12

At twenty-seven, he has perhaps two World Cups left to change his destiny.
