Kylian Mbappe announced himself as a global superstar to settle a stunning clash which will go down as one of the greatest in World Cup history
Wow. The World Cup that has had pretty much everything might just have delivered its defining moment.
France 4-3 Argentina. It was everything the scoreline suggested and more. Seven goals, wonderful entertainment, countless turning points, extraordinary goals galore.
And in the middle of it all, one superstar.
Not Lionel Messi either. The five-time Ballon d’Or winner was a passenger this time. His magic worked in getting Argentina to the finals in the first place but would not be repeated in Russia.
