France vs Iraq LIVE: Kylian Mbappe reaches major milestone in World Cup clash | OneFootball

Kylian Mbappe is set to win his 100th cap for France as the forward and his side seek more World Cup success against Iraq.

Mbappe continued his remarkable record at the tournament with a double in France’s opening game against Senegal, and is relishing the chance to battle with Lionel Messi for the golden boot. The fortunes of the team will, though, be his primary focus as he prepares to bring up a century of international appearances at the age of 27 in a fixture that France will be expected to win well.

Iraq showed, however, a resilience against Norway to suggest they could pose problems. Though eventually well beaten 4-1, they fought back to level after Erling Haaland’s opener and manager Graham Arnold has promised that his team intend to take the game to the opposition again.
