French team: Mbapp, cheat code! – Football

After a decisive pass, the double scorer against Poland (3-1), wrote a little more on the legend of Kylian Mbapp in the French team this Sunday. The top scorer of the World Cup, the Paris Saint-Germain forward broke one record after another, accepting the status of the leader of the blues.

As of December 4, nobody knows the identity of the winner of the world championship held in Qatar. On the other hand, almost everyone knows one thing: the French team has a lethal weapon in its ranks. Karim Benzema is not the winner of the Ballon d’Or who benefits from this status. Nope. This lethal weapon is called Kylian Mbapp.

Mbapp dj among the greatest

Although the Paris Saint-Germain striker is still at the beginning of his career, he is breaking records one after another. The decisive passer then doubled against Poland (3-1), rightly nicknamed this Sunday in the round of 16 garden crack already found fault in only two participations in the tournament 9 times. This is more than Cristiano Ronaldo (8 goals in 5 games), Diego Maradona (8 goals in 4 games) or Neymar (6 goals in 3 games) and Lionel Messi (9 goals in 5 games).

No player in history had scored 9 goals before the age of 24. Until now, the record belonged to Portuguese football legend Eusebio. He achieved many achievements in England in 1966 in 24 years and 182 days. At 23 years and 349 days, the Parisian is therefore better than the Ballon d’Or in 1965 and could go on to improve on that performance in the next match against England or Senegal, while next Saturday, Al Khor can look forward to the lucky end of two awards. additional cartridges (semi-final and final / minor final).

Klose can shake and so can Giroud!

Note that Mbapp is already in the starting blocks to bring down several others. Miroslav Klose, the tournament’s top scorer with 16 goals in four editions (2002, 2006, 2010 and 2014), must already be shaking in his seat at Mbapp’s rocket launch. With one more goal, 2018 world champion Helmut Rahn, Gary Lineker, Gabriel Batistuta, Teogilo Kubillas, Tomas Müller and Grzegorz Lato (10 goals each) will be on the show as 8th, Just Fontaine (4, 13). goal) and Pel (5th, 12 goals), not far behind.

Olivier Giroud, who surpassed Thierry Henry in the history of the French team with 52 goals in 117 games, will have to taste this status. The former Arsenal and FC Barcelona centre-forward held the top spot for 15 years, 1 month and 17 days. Mbapp, who is in 7th place with 33 goals in 63 games, rose like a cannonball and quickly found himself on the podium occupied by 3rd place Antoine Griezmann (42 goals). the coming months.

Blues has no more words

The Blues simply don’t have more upside in their ranks to match him. Is he the best player in the world right now? I’m not objective, I’m French and I’m his coach, but yes, of course. He has prepared for this world championship. Even if he doesn’t play his best game for a good hour, he has that ability because we, as exceptional players, watch him carefully so that we can change the course of the game at any time. On the air of RMC, Didier launched Deschamps.

For his part, Adrien Rabiot is hardly surprised by his partner. He doesn’t surprise me in the sense that I know his potential, even if there is room for improvement. Then it’s incredible, it’s true, the goals he scores, the positions he manages to find, the angles he manages to find. It’s great, that’s what we’ve come to expect from it. We work in the back and wait for him to do the work in front , revealed the Juventus midfield in the mixed zone. With five days off ahead of him, Mbapp will have plenty of time to prepare for his mission to become the best player in the world.
