Mbappe Sets New France🇫🇷 Record 🆚 Peru

Kylian Mbappe has written himself into the World Cup history books with France after opening the scoring against Peru on Thursday.


Having drawn a blank on his tournament debut against Australia, the Paris Saint-Germain star was on hand to strike in the first half.

And in doing so the teenage sensation set a new milestone for his nation at a major tournament.

At 19 years and six months, Mbappe is now the youngest player ever to score for France at a finals, including both World Cup and European Championship competition.

In setting the new record, he also overtakes two Les Bleus legends.

Thierry Henry and David Trezeguet were the previous holders of that distinction, achieved during the 1998 World Cup.
