New Delhi, May 28 (). FIFA World Cup 2026 is starting from June 11. France, the 2018 winner and losing to Argentina in the final in 2022, is once again a contender for the title. The reason for this is star striker Kylian Mbappe, who has given memorable performances in the last 2 World Cups and is currently at the peak of his career.
27 year old Kylian Mbappe is currently considered to be the best striker in the world. Mbappe is also considered the next biggest superstar in the football world after Messi and Ronaldo. The reason for this is his charismatic game, due to which he has made a big name in international and club football. Mbappe is known for his pace, dribbling and accurate finishing. What sets Killian apart from other players is his ability to move the ball forward at full speed, cutting through the opposition and putting it into the goal post. The whole world saw its glory in the final of the last World Cup.
Mbappe played a big role in making France the football world champion by defeating Croatia in the final in 2018. Mbappe scored 1 out of 4 goals for France. France was scheduled to face Argentina in the final in 2022. Mbappe almost single-handedly brought France to the threshold of victory, but due to the magic of Messi, Argentina won and France had to face defeat. The match was tied 3-3 in the stipulated time. All three goals for France were scored by Mbappe.
France has won the World Cup twice. For the first time, France won the title by defeating Brazil at home in 1998. After this, in 2022, France won its second title by defeating Croatia in Russia.
Mbappe is the biggest hope for France in the FIFA World Cup 2026 being held in America, Mexico and Canada. He is coming with more experience and preparation than before. If he plays up to his reputation and gets the support of his fellow players, then France can once again win the biggest title in the world of football.
If we look at Mbappe’s career, this player, who made his debut for France at the age of 18 in 2017, has so far scored 56 goals in 96 matches. Mbappe is at second place in terms of scoring most goals for France. There is every possibility that he will become the highest international goalscorer for France in the World Cup. Currently, former captain Olivier Giroud is at number one. Olivier has scored 57 goals in 137 matches.
