In a match that seemed to defy the cautious arithmetic of elimination football, England and France combined for ten goals in the World Cup third-place contest — the most prolific such fixture in the competition's history. Bukayo Saka's hat trick anchored England's 6-4 victory, delivering the nation its finest World Cup finish in sixty years. Across the same pitch, Kylian Mbappé quietly surpassed Lionel Messi's career World Cup scoring record, a milestone that marks not merely a statistical transfer but a generational passing of the torch.
