France defeated Poland by 3 goals to 1 in the Round of 16 of the ongoing World Cup at Qatar.
Olivier Giroud and Kylian Mbappe with two goals were all enough to see them through to the quarter-finals of the world cup.
Oliver Giroud scored the opener for the French team in the 44 minutes of the match with an assist from Kylian Mbappe who went ahead to score the second and third in the 74th and 90+1 minutes with assists from Ousmane Dembele and Marcus Thuram respectively.
Robert Lewandowski scored a consolation penalty in the 90+7 minutes into the match.
Kylian Mbappe is the star man at the Al Thumama Stadium today as he also got the highest match rating from the World Cup so far with a tally of 9.79 points.
The Paris Saint Germaine star player made a huge impact and contribution to France winning the World Cup in 2018 and he’s treading the same path again hopefully, he keeps it up like the last time.
He has also surpassed some legends in the game with a tally of 9 goals scored in just two world cup campaigns he’s been a part of at the age of 23.
Olivier Giroud, with his goal today becomes France’s all-time top scorer with 52 goals in total, a feat worth celebrating and should be proud of.
The 36 years old has shown great form and quality in the past year and we all hope he continues in this fine form to help France through to a better ending.
