The relatively comfortable 3-1 win over Senegal showed that Kylian Mbappé “switches gears” when it comes to the World Cup.
After all, the Real Madrid forward scored twice and surpassed Pelé to move closer to the all-time World Cup scoring lead with 14 goals, behind only Ronaldo Fenômeno (15), Miroslav Klose, and Lionel Messi (both with 16 goals).

Then, Haaland also shone with two goals in Norway’s 4-1 rout of Iraq.
The Comet’s show made the “Vikings’” return to the World Cup after 28 years even more special!

Finally, Lionel Messi made history once again.
The iconic No. 10 scored a hat-trick in Argentina’s 3-0 win over Algeria and SMASHED seven records in a single night!
The main one, of course, was becoming the top scorer in World Cup history, alongside Germany’s Miroslav Klose, with 16 goals.
