SportsEngland stun France in a goal fest to claim third place

England secured third place after controlling the first half of a high-scoring match against France. France fought back and managed to re-enter the contest, but could not find a winning goal in Didier Deschamps’ final match as French manager. Kylian Mbappé became the highest-scoring player in World Cup history, while Michael Olise equalled Lionel Messi’s all-time assist record. Spain are seeking another star on their jersey, and Argentina are aiming for back-to-back World Cup victories.
