Mbappé Is ONE Goal From Messi's Record as France Sink Morocco | World Cup Day 28

France are into the World Cup 2026 semi-finals, beating Morocco 2-0 — and Kylian Mbappe made history, scoring his 20th career World Cup goal to move within ONE of Lionel Messi's all-time record. A rematch of the 2022 semi-final, settled by the same scoreline. Full quarter-final breakdown below. It didn't start smoothly for Mbappe, who saw a first-half penalty saved by Yassine Bounou after a long VAR wait — but the France captain made it irrelevant. In the 60th minute he curled a brilliant effort into the far corner for his 20th World Cup goal in his 20th World Cup match, becoming only the second player ever to reach 20 (behind Messi's 21) and the youngest to do so, while also setting a new record for the most knockout-stage goals in World Cup history. Six minutes later he turned provider, teeing up Ousmane Dembele for 2-0. With 8 goals and 3 assists, Mbappe is back on top of the Golden Boot race and has racked up the most goal involvements at a single World Cup since Gerd Muller in 1970. France reach a third straight semi-final — only the third nation ever to do that — and face Spain or Belgium in Dallas on Tuesday. I break down the game, the records, and what's next. ⏱️ CHAPTERS Intro: 00:00 France vs Morocco: 00:20 🔔 Subscribe for daily World Cup 2026 coverage: 📲Follow for BONUS content on these platforms: https://www.instagram.com/Rabona.TV https://www.tiktok.com/@rabonatv Check out The 90th Minute’s Daily show, Match Day: https://www.youtube.com/@The90thMinute #WorldCup2026 #Mbappe #France World Cup 2026, France vs Morocco, France 2-0 Morocco, Mbappe 20 goals, Kylian Mbappe World Cup, Mbappe record, Mbappe Messi record, Golden Boot race, Ousmane Dembele goal, Mbappe penalty miss, Yassine Bounou saves, France semifinals, France vs Spain, France vs Belgium, World Cup quarterfinal highlights, Les Bleus, Morocco World Cup, Atlas Lions, 2022 semifinal rematch, World Cup 2026 semifinals, quarter final recap
