Where Mbappe surpassed Pele-Maradona

Kylian Mbappe is the name of the young army of French football, it is now known to everyone. This young man is constantly on a mission to surpass himself. This forward is recording one record after another. Mbappe is running at an unstoppable speed in this World Cup. On the one hand, he has already surpassed two of the best football legends, Pele and Maradona.

Mbappe’s two goals came from the foot of Qatar as they beat Poland 3-0 in their second round match at the World Cup in Qatar. Due to that, his number of goals has increased to 5 in this World Cup so far. Earlier he scored 4 goals in the 2018 World Cup. In total, the 23-year-old French star now has 9 World Cup goals.

And in that, Mbappe surpassed Pele, who is known as the black standard of the football world. He set the precedent of scoring 8 goals at the youngest age (23 years) in the World Cup. Pele previously held the record of scoring 8 goals at the age of 26. Of course, the French youth does not care about these things. Rather, he is fully focused on the game.

On the other hand, Maradona’s World Cup goals are 8. As such, Mbappe surpassed the Argentine legend. Whose current goal is now 9. He is also ahead of everyone in the race for the Golden Boot in this World Cup with a record average. In terms of goals, he has no one so far. As a result, if France goes to the final, Mbappe’s chances will be stronger.

However, Mbappe said he is not looking at Gold’s boots now. Want to keep the rhythm for the team and continue the game until the goal is achieved. Mbappe made it clear that he came to win for France without any personal goals. Of course, if you get a personal reward in the meantime, you will be happy.

England now stands in front of France in the quarter-finals. The Hurricanes are in great shape. On the other hand, in that match, Desham will be looking at his trusted soldier Mbappe. However, in the form that this forward is in, there is no surprise that France will go to the semi-finals riding on Mbappe.
