Kylian Mbappé Scores 14th World Cup Goal To Pass Lionel Messi And Pelé On All-Time List

Kylian Mbappé scored twice in France’s 3-1 World Cup opener vs Senegal — a 66th-minute finish and a stunning long-range strike in stoppage time.
His stoppage-time goal was his 14th World Cup strike, tying Gerd Müller for third-most ever (two ahead of Pelé, one ahead of Messi) and moving him past Olivier Giroud as France’s all-time top scorer.
A 2018 World Cup winner and 2022 runner-up, Mbappé arrives in form after a 25-goal club season with Real Madrid, making him one of the tournament favorites and great fodder for debate.
