The France national football team had an excellent start to the 2026 World Cup, thanks in part to Kylian Mbappé who scored a double against Senegal. This double allowed Mbappé to become the top scorer in the history of the Blues, with a total of 58 goals in 99 selections. The Real Madrid striker surpassed Olivier Giroud, who had ended his international career after Euro 2024 with 57 goals in 137 selections. The duo is ahead of Thierry Henry, Antoine Griezmann, Michel Platini, Karim Benzema, David Trezeguet, Zinédine Zidane, Just Fontaine and Jean-Pierre Papin. Kylian Mbappé achieved this performance during the first match of the Blues at the 2026 World Cup, which ended in a 3-1 victory against Senegal. The French striker once again showed his talent and ability to score important goals. And with this double, Mbappé proved that he is one of the best players on the France national football team. But what's even more impressive is that Mbappé is only 24 years old and has already achieved so much in his career. So it's likely that we'll see a lot more from him in the future.
