The Real Madrid star achieved this remarkable feat during France's World Cup quarter-final showdown against Morocco on Thursday, breaking the stalemate with a precise finish in the first half. That goal, his 64th for Les Bleus, pushed him past the significant 100 mark when combined with his 36 assists for the national squad. As per Opta's statistics, Mbappe's record now boasts an impressive 64 goals and 36 assists across 103 appearances for France. He stands out as the only French player and among the select few globally to surpass triple digits in direct goal contributions at the international level. The 27-year-old has displayed extraordinary form at the 2026 World Cup, netting eight goals and providing three assists throughout the tournament thus far. He has now become the second player ever to tally 20 World Cup goals, accomplishing this feat in 10 fewer matches than Lionel Messi. Mbappe's display against Morocco also marked him as the first French player to make a key contribution in seven consecutive World Cup matches. Furthermore, he is the first player since Gerd Müller in 1970 to be involved in 11 goals during a single World Cup. From a teenage sensation to a legendary figure, Mbappe continues to push the boundaries of what can be achieved on football’s grandest platform. One hundred goal involvements for France. And still counting.
